    77It may be a good idea to adapt the other mail crawlers such as the existing Outlook and Mozilla mail crawlers so that they produce javax.mail.Message objects. We can then refactor the ImapDataAccessor? so that this Message- interpretation code lives elsewhere, making it possible to also apply it on the Messages created by these other mail crawlers. This allows us to reuse the mail interpretation code accross these mail formats.

     9Leo: Alternatively, the Outlook ApertureDataAccessor will use its own crawling and extraction mechanism and just obey to the same ontology. Outlook does not provide the message as plaintext, it is (to my knowledge) reflected completely in the outlook data format. Crawling the message, plaintext and attachments is not that complicated that we need to intermix the both. If they just obey to the same ontology, it should work.

    911If these other mail crawlers have access to the raw mail content (i.e. the message as transported through SMTP), this may be rather easy to realize, as the functionality to parse these lines and convert it into a Message datastructure is part of JavaMail?. We should see if this functionality is publicly available in the library.
