[SCAN-project] SCAN Mail plugin 1.0 released

[Alex A. <al...@gm...>]

SCAN Mail plugin integrates your email store with SCAN. The plugin introduces 
new location type to retrieve the messages from local mail folders and put 
them into the repository together with files, web-pages and other documents. 
Each email message is treated as a unique text document with metadata 
properties retrieved from the message headers (subject, sender, date etc). In 
addition, the attached files of known types are extracted from the messages 
and processed as the separate documents using installed Document Type 
plugins.

Mail plugin supports different types of the email clients (depending on a mail 
storage format):

 * mbox-based: Mozilla Thunderbird/Seamonkey, Netscape, Evolution, KMail, 
Opera Mail (<9.20)
 * Maildir-based: Evolution, KMail, Opera Mail 9.20+
 * Outlook Express 5.0/6.0 (.dbx format)

When adding new mailbox location, the plugin attempts to detect installed 
email client and path to the mail directory depending on your platform and 
selected client type. The plugin supports fetching the messages from a 
specified mail folder (e.g. 'Inbox' only) and recursive crawling of the mail 
folders. The plugin includes an embedded mail viewer for opening the email 
messages by default.

The plugin uses GNU JavaMail API implementation and jmbox JavaMail provider 
for Outlook Express.
