Support for database backend to collected emails #582

Open sbenthall opened 1 year ago

sbenthall commented 1 year ago

We currently store collected emails in flat files.

It would be better if we could store emails in a database. Then we can store higher quantities of email, access it faster, etc.

MongoDB is a natural choice. It is what is used already by the IETF datatracker.

If this is done, it subsumes #549
