Make installable with pip #15

Closed samredway closed 6 years ago

samredway commented 6 years ago

Made some minor changes here for my own use - but you may like to pull them in here for others:

  1. Altered docs - the prerequisite packages listed are all part of the standard library. This is confusing, and unnecessary.

  2. Made pip installable by adding setup.py which makes it easier for people to use who don't want to dev on it and just want to get on and use it for their own ends (which I want to do)

  3. In doing the above how to handler the config file became a question and the easiest thing seemed to be to just allow the user to specify which config to use at run time, and use outlook as the default.

PS thanks for the code and using it to add some extra (more intelligent filters to my own email account)

@samredway Why was this closed ? This is a good idea.

samredway commented 6 years ago

The honest answer is - I can't remember ... errm it seems like a reasonable PR doesn't it? I may have thought of another better way to do it and then not gotten around to making changes or something, or maybe found a bug or problem with the PR as it was (and not gotten around to fixing it). I'm not sure. Please use though if you think it is useful.
