Support for time series indices
Ponymail is basically time series data. It captures email data, including
time sent. Time sent may make for a good key on a time series index.

One of the downsides to elasticsearch is that your shard count can't
change. There is an upper limit on total data stored in an index, based on the
shard count and doc size. In order to allow ponymail to operate beyond those
limits, it should store in an index keyed off of some factor. That factor is
probably configurable - daily, monthly, yearly - or off. That index should be
created automatically with settings standardized based on data volume.
