Sebb created COMDEV-295:
---------------------------
Summary: Consider whether to extract mod_mbox statistics locally
Key: COMDEV-295
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMDEV-295
Project: Community Development
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Reporter Tool
Reporter: Sebb
At present the reporter tool uses the mailglomper script to extract information
about the number and timing of mails sent to each list.
To do this, it has to download the entire mailbox, even though it only needs
the ^From_ lines.
Whilst the code attempts to avoid unnecessary downloads (by checking dates and
sizes), for busy mbox files there can be a lot of network traffic.
It might make sense for some initial data extraction to be done locally and
cached in a file.
This could be done as part of updating the mod_mbox indexes.
For example, the script could extract just the ^From_ lines into a separate
file and store that alongside the .mbox file. Mailglomper would read the much
abbreviated file instead.
