We are evaluating piler as solution for e-mail archiving atm. It looks and works great so far. Available Debian/Ubuntu Packages would be a great plus, but compiling piler is not a great deal if you found out which packages are required. In the first pass I changed the datadir to a path other than /var. This was a great mistake and I installed it again. There are several path that aren't changed by the postinstall script, especially in the Web-UI. Maybe this is something that should be tested further.
I'll check the postinstall script, thanks for noticing.
However there is one point I'm wondering about. We are using Exchange and setup a journaling mailbox some years ago. Of course we like to import these mails. This works great with pilerimport. I see no advantage in using smtp-forwarding mails to piler. Rather than that I like to use the journaling mailbox and import the mails regularly with pilerimport. So it's no problem is the archive host is down some time etc. The one point I'm missing or haven't found is the switch which tells pilerimport to delete a mail after it was successfully imported. Isn't there one or was I to blind to find it?
actually there is such a switch, it's "-r". However it works for locally imported EML files (from a directory), and currently it doesn't instruct
the imap server to remove the already processed email. Give me some time, and I'll add this feature to work with imap. Best regards, Janos
