What can go into core (web compatible!)?

database only as trait
importer only as trait

Provides a high level visual overview of swaths of email

Performance

It currently parses 632383 emails in ~160 seconds, so roughly 4.000 emails per second. This excludes (for now) attachments. Update: It currently parses 632115 emails in ~56 seconds, so roughly 11.000 emails per second. This excludes (for now) attachments. (on M1)

Open Issues

check the feature.lru to see if it compiles without LRU
build static linux binary via docker: Via Github Actions?
try to build a static windows binary: Via Github Actions?
try to build a macos binary: Via Github Actions?
Demo Video
Documentation
wasm build?

Windows Issues

No Outlook support
The apple importer fails
Very much untested (it does run though)

Future Options

Add additional UI based on Druid, Iced or Native Cocoa
maybe add blocking versions of the calls, too (in model)
abstract over Fields and backend to have a generic way to display groupable information
apply the window changes (no status etc) on startup, not just when loading main
split up into multiple crates
action when clicking an email?
support light theme
allow diving into splits/segments until there're no gropu bys anymore, but the last split can be opened full (to see the mails)
remove unneeded dependencies and features
add support for generating mail deletion rules based on the visible mails
support more mail formats:
- outlook
- notmuch
- maildir

Development

Generate a macOS bundle (requires Cargo Bundle)

./build_mac.sh
