Hi, Would you be interested in an extractor that extract information from mailboxes written in Vala ? If you are, I'll have to ask permission from my employer but I'm sure it could be done.
(For the moment, it doesn't do MIME multipart nor threading since that wasn't useful for my application) I prefer the approach of file extractors to the applications plugin that updates the tracker database. The file extractors work for any filetype you support while plugins have to be rewritten for every application. For example, I don't use evolution, and my mail client changed from sylpheed to claws-mail and now Thunderbird and perhaps soon Balsa. Writing a plugin for each is a waste of time, especially considering they all use standardised formats. Recently, I just realized that tracker was a wonderful thing. You could write an e-mail reader that should just use tracker to find all the e-mails you have on your machine. The same way, we could hae a contacts application that would let you see all contacts everywhere on your machine, vCards on your ~/Documents, or sent to you as e-mail attachments... There is no limitation. Truly interoperable I'd love such a desktop, than you guys to make this possible!
