How to log email
Hi,
I have got a project where we need to log every email that is sent from anywhere into the database.
example:
John wants to log all of his conversation with Anne.
He do this by CC all of his email with Anne into server@example.com
Our server then capture all emails that are sent into server@example.com and store them into the database for the purpose of data mining.
what technology do I need to implement that?
ideally a linux server with php/java/open source software

do i need an email server to receive all the emails? what email server is that?
>>He do this by CC all of his email with Anne into server@example.com
this mail needs to go to a server and it has to have a valid email address ( server@example.com ) for example..
then you can use Javamail to connect to this server and read mails off of it to store in your database...

i.e. you can not make the object to get stored as a "Email" per say..
now if you want to have it stored in the data base in different fields ( i.e. to, cc, date, time, & content etc..) that can be done using the javamail APIs..
