NAME

       Sympa::Spindle::ProcessAutomatic - Workflow of automatic list creation

SYNOPSIS

         use Sympa::Spindle::ProcessAutomatic;

         my $spindle = Sympa::Spindle::ProcessAutomatic->new;
         $spindle->spin;

DESCRIPTION

       Sympa::Spindle::ProcessAutomatic defines workflow to process messages for automatic list
       creation.

       When spin() method is invoked, it reads the messages in automatic spool.  If the list a
       message is bound for has not been there and list creation is authorized, it will be
       created.  Then the message is stored into incoming message spool again and waits for
       processing by Sympa::Spindle::ProcessIncoming.

       Order to process messages in source spool are controlled by modification time of files and
       delivery date.  Some messages are skipped according to these priorities (See
       Sympa::Spool::Automatic):

       •   Messages with lowest priority ("z" or "Z") are skipped.

       •   Messages with possiblly higher priority are chosen.  This is done by skipping messages
           with lower priority than those already found.

   Public methods
       See also "Public methods" in Sympa::Spindle.

       new ( [ keepcopy => $directory ], [ log_level => $level ], [ log_smtp => 0|1 ] )
       spin ( )
           new() may take following options:

           keepcopy => $directory
               spin() keeps copy of successfully processed messages in $directory.

           log_level => $level
               Overwrites log_level parameter in configuration.

           log_smtp => 0|1
               Overwrites log_smtp parameter in configuration.
