THIS CODE SHOULD NOT BE USED IN PRODUCTION YET. SEE bin/google-gather INSTEAD, FOR AN ALTERNATE MECHANISM OF FETCHING REPORTS FROM NANAS VIA GOOGLE GROUPS.

This module uses the news.admin.net-abuse.sightings archive kindly provided by the Google(tm) Groups service to feed public complaints into the Mail::Abuse package.

The general idea is that a search is going to be performed and each result will be fed into the Mail::Abuse engine. The parameters of the process can be configured by the following keys in the configuration file.

google groups search

Regexp to search for in the text of each article.

google groups max messages

Maximum number of messages to read in a single run. Defaults to 50.

google groups oldest message

Controls the maximum age of a message. Messages that are older (accorging to its Date: header) will be skipped and not counted. This defaults to five days.

google groups server

The name of the Google(tm) Groups server to use. Defaults to groups.google.com.

google groups proxy

The proxy server to use.

debug google groups

When set to a true value, causes debug information to be sent to STDERR.

The following methods are implemented within this class.

read($report)

Populates the text of the given $report using the ->text method. Must return true if succesful or false otherwise.

None by default.
