It's not clear what pain you're solving, or what you system does. I think it has something to do with converting the format of my email, but I'm not sure how that help me.

I'm also not sure why I'd want to give up the flexibility of using my own email address for one on a domain I don't control. Also, if this is a valid pain point, I highly doubt that software engineers would feel this pain any more than a dozen other professional classes. Would accountants not have this pain?

Thanks for the feedback. I guess my question to you is are you a developer who has had to write code to process emails? If yes, then you'd understand the pain of trying to cleanly extract and deal with all the intricacies and complexity of getting data consistently and cleanly out of those emails. Especially if you are processing attachments.

I'm not sure the pain you're trying to solve is real or at the right junction. I process data from all sources daily, and many are email attachments. Just extracting the attachments is not difficult. Then my BI process will unzip if necessary and process the files. There are different connectors for different file types: HTML, PDF, CSV, Excel, etc.. I think processing the files should be at a latter stage, not during the extract phase.

How is this diferrent from http://www.mailgun.com ?

MailRipper extracts attachments, extracts the text from those attachments and converts the document attachments to PDF. Also MailRipper doesn't require any programming, MailGun does.

Very cool. Could this be turned into an email API? A user emails mailripper which pings a server with the info?

Yes. Can you suggest to me what use case you'd have in mind? I'm guessing you'd drop the email and extracted text into a database for full text search?

Not exactly sure, but its interesting to think about

really like how you implemented the try it out/demo on your landing page.

It didn't work for the demo

Sorry about that. It appears a couple of the inbound processing tasks weren't running. I suspect it's because I did some late configuration of supervisor and really I should have had them in autostart, which I didn't for uninteresting reasons. SHould be working now, but if not please do email [email protected] and I'll check it out. thanks for your patience, it's the very earliest release.
