Web based email & sql admin for Pylons?

[Kevin Ar18]

In fact, if there is something like this for any Python web framework, please let me know. :)
 
 
If you want the details, read this paragraph:
I would like to have some kind of app that allows me to manage a list of contact in a database like fashion (where I can add new table columns and add new data to people).  Yet, at the same time, I would like to integrate this with other things over time.  For example, I would like to integrate the database with a web based email system.  Instead of having one inbox, I'd have one inbox per contact in my database. In that way I can look at the contact and see only emails related to that contact.... or read several emails together as an ongoing conversation. Or setup a notification if someone never responds to the email, so I can try again.  And, of course, over time, I may want to add more features....
 
So, I figured I could use a Python web framework.  Then take a pre-built sql admin app and a pre-built web based email system and build from there.
 
Are there any such app already made using Python or am I going to have to build a sql admin and a browser based email all from scratch :( ?
 
Is there some other way that I can build what I need (with the option to exptend it in Python as I need)?  like a CMS?
 
Would it help if I explained the concept in more detail or if I asked this in a different Python mailing list?

Sounds like you want Django or Drupal. Pylons is lightweight, which
means these things are up to you. There's no administrative backend.

The closest one I know of is FormAlchemy:
http://docs.formalchemy.org/current/index.html

It provides an automatic admin screen geared towards Pylons apps:
http://docs.formalchemy.org/current/ext/pylons.html#administration-interface

although I haven't used it myself.

Any thoughts on an email app?  Or would I have to start from scratch using, say, the following Python library: http://docs.python.org/3.0/library/netdata.html

Hi!
Admin interfaces are available via rum.
It is a feature-rich, customizable, mountable WSGI-App.

Hi, you are welcome to present this project as a TurboGears GSOC proposal.

I also agree this is too wide for something like pylons but it could
fit in interesting ways on top of TG.

[Jose Galvez]

this is very cool, I'm going to take a look at it to see if I can use it for some of my projects
