Bipostal Store is a data abstraction layer for Bipostal services.

The most up-to-date and detailed information about this project is located here.

Goals

The original goal of BIPostal was two fold. The original was to be a component of Push Notifications. While that's still planned, the main focus has shifted to fill a need with BrowserID.

BrowserID needs to have a way to do semi-anonymous email. It allows you to provide a verified email address, which may not be your main email address. The alias is generated from 64 lowercase, alphanumeric characters. (Unfortunately, some Mail Transfer Agents (MTAs) alter the case of the local-part of the email address, so a case insensitive format must be used.) The email address is mapped to the user via the bipostmap.py program contained in bipostal. Management of aliases is performed by bipostal_dash.

##Requirements Aside from the items listed in dev-reqs.txt, you will need:

• Python 2.6+ (this package has not been built against python3)

• memcached (or access to a memcached server)

• mysql server

• mysql_dev
