I think it might be nice to have an option (as in "optional"!) to enter your email address when you run a new analysis so that you can post a message to that address with a link to the results. Either that, or have user accounts with saved results.

This helps to keep track of multiple results and gives some robustness to interface errors happening after submission (which you will never be able to avoid completely in requests that may run for an extended period of time).

Thanks for the suggestion!

I think user accounts is a great idea, but too much overhead at this point... let's see how popular LOLAweb becomes and then reconsider user accounts in the future.

e-mail results seems fine, but will require setting up an e-mail system. Given that LOLA takes only 3-4 minutes to run I'm not sure this is necessary at this point.

I think if we can implement #47 and drop the time to under 1 minute per run, this wouldn't be necessary. So I suggest we keep this in mind.

FYI for future TODO on this: there's already an outbound SMTP relay available within the servers. Just send via normal outbound to the localhost, port 25, no credentials needed. It will then relay to the datacenter SMTP sender to go out to the world.
