Optional save attachments [#2269179]

Hey there,

just a short question. I know that mail logger saves mail "as is" and it's doing this well. But is there any opportunity to (optionally) not save attachments. Cause the actual way the database is getting really huge, which is making e.g. backuphandling a bit tricky.

Greetings
I

That would require actually handling the contents of the email, and that is not what this module does.

Can you not have the module delete old emails?

Actually this is what I do at the moment plus a backup before deleting them. But it's more a mixture of legal issue and wish of my customer. He needs the log to proof which mails have been sent. Removing the attachments and e.g. attach the filenames to the body would cover everything needed.
Unforunatly I had no time yet to look into the code and find out how the mail contents are delivered to mail logger. I assume they are hand over in the way they are stored. So wit every stuff in.
