Hello,
Happy to inform that we could successfully complete the global
deployment[1] of Extension:BounceHandler and the Wikipiedia's are handling
bounce emails effectively. The current threshold for the number of allowed
bounces is 5, and we could test the unsubscribe action live on
en.wikipedia.org with help of sysops ( I couldnt send more than 2 emails,
thanks to the Anti-spam checks ).
As of now, 'bounce_records' have 37338 entries, mainly from group0 and
group1 wikis ( in ~ 20 days ). We expect an exponential increase in the
same, as the en-wiki has got amazing bounce rates.
This would mean the finish ( deployment ) of my GSoC 2014 project[2] with
Jeff Green and Legoktm. Thanks to everyone who helped in between, it was
real fun!
