| = Contact collection |
| |
| == Motivation |
| |
| Many modern applications combines email and contacts. |
| |
| We want recipients of emails sent by a user to automatically be added to this user contacts, for convenience. This |
| should even be performed when a user sends emails via SMTP for example using thunderbird. |
| |
| == Design |
| |
| The idea is to send AMQP messages holding information about mail envelope for a traitment via a tierce application. |
| |
| == Configuration |
| |
| We can achieve this goal by combining simple mailets building blocks. |
| |
| Here is a sample pipeline achieving aforementioned objectives : |
| |
| .... |
| <mailet match="SenderIsLocal" class="ContactExtractor"> |
| <attribute>extractedContacts</attribute> |
| </mailet> |
| <mailet match="All" class="AmqpForwardAttribute"> |
| <uri>amqp://${env:JAMES_AMQP_USERNAME}:${env:JAMES_AMQP_PASSWORD}@${env:JAMES_AMQP_HOST}:${env:JAMES_AMQP_PORT}</uri> |
| <exchange>collector:email</exchange> |
| <attribute>extractedContacts</attribute> |
| </mailet> |
| |
| .... |
| |
| A sample message looks like: |
| |
| .... |
| { |
| "userEmail": "sender@james.org", |
| "emails": ["to@james.org"] |
| } |
| .... |
