Mailpiler - self hosted email archive

[marcusquinn]

@necrevistonnezr Don't know yet but will post some stats when I get to it. The project I have with it is for years of company email archives, so will have some good stats to compare from source to destination.

I might research file-system level deduplication, as I imagine there's a lot of duplicate files from email threads.

Just thought I'd chime in and say I'm very interested in a mail archive solution.

Is this still in the works or in a beta stage to be installed?

@necrevistonnezr Hey, we have it working, need to ask @vladimir-d to commit to Cloudron's GitLab and let the team verify it's good to go for App Store inclusion.

Hi all,
I am wondering if we are far away from an addition of mailpiler to the Cloudron app repository. It would be of great help in a couple of the situation I am facing atm.
@vladimir-d Maybe you have had the chance to commit the working app version to Clourdon's GitLab already

If I can help (within the remit of my abilities) or contribute in making this happen, I would be happy to do so.

[girish]

I am happy to include this if we have something basic going . @marcusquinn @vladimir-d do you have any initial work here ?

[vladimir.d]

@girish here is some initial work.

TBH I didn't have a chance to complete it yet, I think the issue described here still needs to be addressed.

@vladimir-d Would be awesome to get this working... Since the LAW in austria and germany for this hase been activate now for i think 2 Years. That you need a Mail Archive where you can proof the Mail is not changed....

@savity As an alternative, you can achieve pretty-much the same thing with EspoCRM, as that will import emails to give you the same duplicate data in an alternative place.

With full text search of mails and attachments? Can this be used for continuous backup?

[marcusquinn]

@necrevistonnezr full text search of emails, yes. Attachment searching I don't think so but it could be possible as we're using this full-time for 100+ users, so there's some value in us developing anything that isn't there. Sure, just add connection details and it will keep importing emails regardless of if you login or not.

[savity]

@marcusquinn does it import automaticly ? have to check it

[marcusquinn]

@savity Yes, and it's already an Cloudron packaged and maintained app. I recommend it in many ways.

We also have Mailpiler packaged but not yet adopted by the Cloudron team, but have not pursued it further, since Espo is covering our needs.

Hello, I'm glad to see that there was an initial work adding piler to the app store.
I've got a request recently from a Cloudron user that he wanted to use piler archiving. Can you update me about the current status about this initiative? Whether it's still relevant, or you need some help from my side, etc.

It works for us, just need adopting by Cloudron with tests and app store inclusion.

[LoudLemur]

@jsuto Thanks for mailpiler. What is the password for the demo? This ought to be written somewhere... more obvious...

[jsuto]

@LoudLemur When you visit https://demo.mailpiler.com/ you may find several account in the username:password format, eg.

admin@local:pilerrocks
auditor@local:auditor
fedora@redhat.com:redhat
external@local:external

Let me know if you have any further questions.

[jsuto]

@marcusquinn It's great news! Can you tell me whom should I contact to progress further?

[marcusquinn]

@jsuto I think that'll be the @appdev Group for community assistance finishing this, or @girish if he's interested in adding it to the App Store.

I guess @staff would just need to give you access to https://git.cloudron.io/vladimir.d/mailpiler
