#66: Restore ability to export mbox files -----------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: dmw | Owner: abompard Type: enhancement | Status: accepted Priority: critical | Milestone: 1.1 Version: | Resolution: Keywords: mbox export data | -----------------------------+-----------------------
Comment (by berrange):
NB, a reason for providing mbox archives is that a number of projects rely on tools which download the archives and extract patches from them, as part of their development workflow. For these kind of tools to work, you really don't want to escape / obscure email addresses in the mbox archives. The tools need the full original messages with all headers and data intact including email addresses - essentially the same as if the person had had the mails directly delivered to them.
