Hi all,

I'm working with Robert Marianski to add support for importing mbox files into Listen mailing lists. One feature we'd like to support is allowing the user to preview some of the messages being imported before actually adding them to the list. This seems like an important option given the relative ease with which a user could either accidentally import the wrong mbox file or try to import corrupt or improperly formatted files. The preview feature is intended to act as a guard against such mishaps, even though it is less ideal than having a full-fledged undo feature.

This requires that we store the messages from the mbox file temporarily (otherwise the user would have to upload the entire mbox file twice). Does anyone have any thoughts as to where the file should be stored? Should we keep things in the ZODB or would it be better to save a temporary file?

Thanks,
    -Nick
