-----------------------------------------
Is that crontab running here still?
{{The site runs on the host projects-vm3.a.o at present (May 2021)}}
> 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
> Priority: Major
>
> 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.
