FEATURE: Indexing Email Headers

D4T4HUN73R opened this issue · comments

Hello I just want to ask if aleph is already indexing email headers (containing sometimes useful metadata)? and if not if it would be considered to be a new feature of aleph in near future. thx for the great work already and all the best!

Hi @TheDataHunter, Aleph currently parses and indexes a subset of common email headers such as From, To, Cc, Bcc, Reply-To, Message-ID, References etc. Aleph currently does not index the raw headers. However, in addition to parsing and indexing, Aleph also stores the original source file, so you can always download that for further analysis.

If you think that Aleph should parse and index additional email headers, feel free to suggest that as a feature request. In that case, please make sure to use the issue template for feature requests and to provide context around your use case.

perfect! thank you for your fast reply. I'll consider of doing so.

I’ll close this issue for now, but feel free to reopen with additional information :)
