Features

Running Tests

Does the code actually work?

source <YOURVIRTUALENV>/bin/activate
(myenv) $ pip install tox
(myenv) $ tox

TODO

• Passthrough backend - store the email for display in the views but also pass to another backend which may actually send

• Redis backend using Redis specific functionality for cleaner code and less risk of bugs vs the django cache backend

• Memcached backend

• File based backend - store each email as its own file

• Database backend - model to store emails and attachments

• Other backends? ElasticSearch? MongoDB?

• Separate views for each of html, plaintext, attachements, etc. to allow for more customization of display?
