Java Mailing List Tool Progress


ShadowHawk00

Recommended Posts

Ok this topic is just here as to provide feedback on my progress on the java tool that will be used for the mailing list. And for me to get feedback and questions ( and answers ) Because time constrains i have not started coding the thing but i already have a small list of requirements that might need to be completed.
Once requirements are complete the OO design will be created and implemented and judging from what i have now for requirements it will not be that difficult.

But here are the requirements that i already have :

Interface to add mails from the mailinglist ( with sender, date, topic, message ... )
Method of exporting the data to an xml file (*)
Final method of putting them in directly in the forum and checking for duplicates
( importing of the xml format for easy modifications in case of errors )

(*) should they be sorted here already so all the mails with the same topic in the same xml file.

The idea I had come up with had a single XML for each thread. Below is a sample XML I had come up with.

[code]<mailinglist>
   <thread>
       <topic>Mailing List Transition</topic>
       <email>
           <sender>mindstormmaster</sender>
           <date>2004-07-03 22:35</date>
           <message>This is an example of an email</message>
       </email>
       <email>
           <sender>mindstormmaster</sender>
           <date>2004-07-03 23:35</date>
           <message>This is a very long email message.
It contains multiple lines and spacing.

This is the last line of the message.</message>
       </email>
   </thread>
</mailinglist>[/code]
