perso - Maildir to REST

About

Perso is a small, self-contained REST server for a Maildir mailbox.

It includes configurable header indexing and crawling.

Perso is useful when used on testing or staging sites to have a quick
means to access a mailbox remotely, for example by a integration testing
framework.

Perso can make you forget about POP/IMAP servers for simple use cases.

Unzip and install in your binary directory:

$ unzip perso-*.gz
$ mkdir -p ~/bin
$ mv perso-* ~/bin/
$ export PATH="$PATH:~/bin"

Getting Started

After installing, move to a directory containing e-mail messages (a Maildir,
usually containing subdirectories 'cur', 'new' and 'tmp'). And, presto, you
can run "perso".

$ cd ~/Mail/ # For example
$ perso

Now perso is listening on port 8888. Just point your browser to
http://localhost:8888/ to proceed. You should be able to see your latest
email message.
