Delete bounced emails #216

Closed rjmajma closed 9 years ago

rjmajma commented 9 years ago

First iteration of corrections will be correcting what bounced back.

@konklone will provide a corrected list.

khandelwal commented 9 years ago

Two batches:

rjmajma commented 9 years ago

@ramirezg, do you have a list of the agency bounces?

geramirez commented 9 years ago

@rjmajma since, the emails are going to @konklone he's started this list

rjmajma commented 9 years ago

Perfect. So my understanding is that @konklone is going to be responding to folks and collating responses.

For now, let's not worry about correcting the mistakes and just focus on dealing with what's bounced against our data. Does that sound right @ramirezg @khandelwal @konklone?

khandelwal commented 9 years ago

+1 To removing what's bounced. That way our dataset is 'correct'. We can do a second pass and try and get those emails.

geramirez commented 9 years ago

@rjmajma @khandelwal,@konklone works for me.

geramirez commented 9 years ago

When I called the DOJ about their bounced email, Jacob just removed it from FOIA Online. I'm thinking I'll just update our FOIA contact xlsx and send it over to DOJ to post. That way, the changes will be part of the automated yaml building process without adding more complexity on our end.

Is there no replacement email?

As you do that, make sure to keep a separate note of the exact changes you made, so that we don't lose your work.

I'd really like for us to cut the cord on scraping FOIA.gov as soon as possible.

@konklone, DOJ just fixed their own contact information on foia.gov. They said the email wasn't even supposed to be there along with a couple others. I wasn't expecting this response.

geramirez commented 9 years ago

I started to find replacements which will needed to be tested for bounces as well. The list here on sheet: 'fixed on foia repo'

khandelwal commented 9 years ago

This issue is pretty confusing. There are a few referenced PRs. What's still left to do?

geramirez commented 9 years ago

@khandelwal, I'll clean it up.
