How to Modify Message and add more Attachments

[Marc Roos]

If are processing Europeans voice mail you have to check if that is even 
allowed, could be a problem with GDPR legislation.

CAUTION - EXTERNAL EMAIL This email originated from outside of Smith 
Micro Software. Do not click links or open attachments unless you 
recognize the sender and know the content is safe.


Hmmm, that does not sound nice storing files as email. Maybe use 
document database? Look at this[1], see if it is possible to use the 
rados plugin to store files directly as objects?

What are you using for speech to text?

Hello Everyone,



I am working on a product in which we are planning to store voice 
messages in Dovecot sent by a user to another user. The message would be 
stored as an email with .wav attachment. Once the Voice message is 
received, it may get Transcribed. The message can be further be 
processed and more information can be added to the message later. The 
original plan was to Modify the email and add New information as 
attachments to same message.



As I understood, messages stored in Dovecot are immutable. What is the 
best option to achieve this functionality?



Thanks,

Mrinal
