NAME
Email::Store::Thread - Store threading information for a mail
ABSTRACT
Remember to create the database table:
% make install
% perl -MEmail::Store="..." -e 'Email::Store->setup'
And now:
my $container = $mail->container;
if ($container->parent) {
print "Parent of this message is ".$container->parent->message;
}
DESCRIPTION
This adds to a mail the concept of a thread container. A thread
container is a node in a tree which represents the thread of an email
conversation. It plugs into the indexing process and works out where in
the tree the mail belongs; you can then ask a mail for its "container",
a container for its "message", and for its "parent", "child" and
"sibling" containers, which are used to navigate the thread tree.
This is distributed separately from the main "Email::Store" distribution
as it tends to slow down indexing somewhat.
