You can build an email client, but replacing HEY means running a trustworthy email service: deliverability, spam filtering, abuse handling, storage, mobile apps, and reputation.

el prompt
Build me an email client with HEY's screening and bundling ideas, running on
top of a mailbox I already pay for (Fastmail, Gmail, anything with IMAP).
Requirements:

- A local web app: Node + Express + better-sqlite3, binds to localhost;
  imapflow for reading, nodemailer for sending, creds in .env.
- The screener: mail from first-time senders lands in a screening view where I
  approve or block; decisions persist in SQLite and apply to all future mail.
- Bundles: approved senders get a category; newsletters render in a batched
  feed view, receipts in a paper-trail list; only approved humans hit the
  inbox.
- Reply-later: mark a thread and it sits in a persistent to-answer stack until
  cleared.
- Write decisions back as IMAP folders and labels so my phone's mail app
  roughly mirrors the sorting.
- Strip remote images in the reading pane by default.
- No accounts of its own, no telemetry; mail stays at my provider.
- Out of scope: running an SMTP server, custom domains, and mobile apps. Do not
  replace the mail service itself; deliverability and spam reputation are the
  product and cannot be rebuilt solo.
- README: per-provider app-password setup, and a warning that Gmail OAuth is a
  project of its own, use an app password or Fastmail to keep this a weekend.

They pay because email is infrastructure; deliverability and trust are the product.

preguntas
¿Puedo vibecodear HEY?

No tanto. El valor de HEY no es el código. Mira el desglose honesto arriba.

¿Cuánto cuesta HEY?

HEY cuesta unos $8.25/mes (Personal address, revisado 2026-07-30), o sea $99 al año.

¿Qué pierdo si reemplazo HEY?

Con honestidad: email deliverability; spam/abuse systems; storage reliability; mobile apps; identity/reputation; support. Si alguno de esos te sostiene el negocio, sigue pagando.

¿Hay una alternativa open source a HEY?

Sí: Mail-in-a-Box (Open-source personal mail server stack; useful prior art but deliverability remains the mo). Usar arte previo también es vibecodear; el prompt es para cuando la quieres exactamente a tu modo.
