With a server side version of TiddlyWiki such as TiddlyWeb the might be more achievable. Ben Gillies and I wrote some server side code that pulled from an smtp email account into a TiddlyWeb bag. http://svn.tiddlywiki.org/Trunk/contributors/JonRobson/TiddlyWeb/plugins/Mailer/
However as Christian says sooner or later you will hit 300mb files. My beefcake plugin (http://svn.tiddlywiki.org/Trunk/contributors/ JonRobson/plugins/beefcake/beefcake.tid) would help ease the loading times by allowing you to suck in emails as you need them, but it's not tried and tested on really really big files. Put simply if you wanted to go down this route, you probably could but you would encounter lots of unsolved TiddlyWiki problems and would be pushing the tools boundaries. If you like a challenge maybe you still want to but I wouldn't recommend it :) On Sep 9, 12:45 pm, Zans Mihejevs <[email protected]> wrote: > Has anyone tried using Tiddlywiki for storing email?
