Suggestion - Add email GET request counter

erm3nda commented 5 years ago

Having a counter from imap email with catchall will lend to just a counter wich also reflects all spam on it. For better accuracy i do recommend to count also each GET, getting a count of "used emails from website" and "number of emails readed".

Regards.

Where would you store the statistics?

Anywhere into a file or home .void-mail/stats.json, json'ed data with every GET and a counter. Maybe something like stats.json:

{"stats": {
              "get_counter_all": "55",
              "get_counter_last", "4",
              "get_history": {
                                     "<uuid>", "GET call 1 data",
                                     "<uuid>": "GET call 2 data, etc"
                                      }
               }
}

EDIT: Actually i can monitor and save GET requests because i do nginx's proxy_pass void-mail http server with ngnix/apache, so i have at least 2 logs (even with rotate) to get enough data.

Why i did that? Well, i do install vestacp on every vps I do setup, and also that enables me to serve over https on top of the local http request to http://localhost:3000 (void-mail) or show an html page if server goes off, instead of just crash server. Fallback things ...
