[colug-432] New Tool: EMail Forensics with OOo

[Joshua Kramer]

Howdy Everyone,

I posted a new tool to my blog:

http://www.globalherald.net/jb01/weblog/23.html

This tool basically takes any MBOX formatted mailbox and inserts its 
contents (plaintext format) nicely into an OpenOffice.org document.  It 
sorts the messages chronologically before doing so, and it spells out the 
header info (From, To, Date) in a Header style.  This is useful when 
creating table of contents.

Interestingly, Thunderbird uses MBOX format files.  So, if you have a 
reason to import a local Thunderbird folder into OpenOffice, check out 
this tool!  It is a Python script and requires OOo 3.11.

Critiques and comments would be appreciated!

Later,
-Josh
