Hi,
I wanted to discuss about the future of the mailsender plugin ?
I've been working on a small tool to be able to send a Calendar Invitation
by email from a Meeting Notes AppWithinMinutes application and I found some
limitation in the mailsender plugin, namely you cannot add multipart
alternative email parts in addition to the text and html parts already
supported by the plugin.
I was able to hack the mailsender plugin to add a vcalendar part but it
does not really sound right to do that since we should support any part of
any content type, but this is a bigger refactoring.
I was wondering what the future is for the mailsender plugin. Do we plan to
make it a component and keep the same functionality ? Is there a plan for
an alternative component ?
And what would be the approach to add a vcalendar part in emails sent by
the current mailsender ? This would be needed to support the feature of
sending invitation emails which would be very powerfull.
