Mailhandler and MIME Router

Comments

Great work

Submitted on June 24th, 2010 by Kyle Mathews

I browsed through the code and it looks pretty good. Supporting attaching files from emails is a task that's been on the back burner for quite awhile for OG Mailinglist and I think the algorithm you've developed would work perfectly.

Have you looked at supporting the core upload module as well?

Not core upload at this point

Submitted on June 24th, 2010 by Bill

We don't have any plans at this moment to support core upload - but, we'd probably be open to patches that added that in.

Our use case is filefield specific, and we haven't used core upload for anything in a while.

Although, I could imagine a use case that leveraged comment_upload where it could be useful...

want OGM to support all three

Submitted on June 24th, 2010 by Kyle Mathews

I'm planning on supporting all three in OGM, Filefield, comment_upload, and the core upload module, but defaulting to FileField if available.

Media file not making ito the node

Submitted on September 21st, 2010 by Anonymous

Hi,

When I retreive the mail, the node is created but no video file is present.

File uploads is on and I've created the Media Field w/ File type.

Are there any extra mods or steps necessary? Thanks!!

Could be one of several things

Submitted on September 21st, 2010 by Bill

1. Can you upload and share a file via the web UI?
2. Is the filetype you are mailing allowed within the field?
3. Is the file being stripped by your email provider?
4. Is the file to big for the limits set within your field?

These are the first things I'd check.

Google Apps versus GMail

Submitted on November 21st, 2010 by Erich Riesenberg

Hello - In the screencast reference is made to gmail.

I tried to use Mailhandler with Google Apps but although the mailbox tested correctly, when I actually tried to download via Mailhandler it did not download.

I am wondering if you have tried Google Apps. Google Apps seems nicer than gmail because you can use your own domain name.

MIME Router the module works great and I am grateful. Thank you.

Can't think of a reason why Google Apps would work differently..

This older thread gives some useful info on using MailHandler with Gmail/Google apps: http://drupal.org/node/64362

And I was also going to suggest that you put an issue in the mailhandler queue, but you beat me to it: http://drupal.org/node/971172 :)

We'll see if we can test this on Google Apps and sort out the details. My initial inclination is that it's related to one of two things:

1. How the php imap extension is compiled; and/or
2. How Google Apps handles usernames in individual domains set up via google apps.

We're coming up on Thanksgiving here, so any digging we can do on this would be in December at the earliest.

Photos not showing up... filepath problem

Submitted on March 1st, 2011 by Suzi

I have my path set up (in content type) as u[user-id]. However, this is resolving to

http://domain.com/files/sites/domain.com/files/pictures/picture-1.jpg"picture-1.jpg

Certainly the stray quote mark is a problem, but where can I solve the double entry for the domain information?

Thanks for the great screencast! It really helped in getting this set up.
