Refactoring RATOM: Day 3

Day 2 Day 3

Whoops, already starting to fall behind. I missed Day 2; because, life... so here is Day 3.

Reminder on my current objective:

Step 1. Get the original app up and running.
Step 2. Browse around and get a feel for the UI and UX again.

Step 1: Get the original app running

This was an exercise in nudging and tweaking requirements, settings, configuration files, etc. But I finally got it done.
YAAAY!

Step 2: Browse around.

Blocker: In order to browse around, the application needs to have data, and the application was specifically designed to ingest PST files, which, as it happens, are very, very hard to find now that the Enron PSTs have been purged from the internet 😠

Okay, now I need to add functionality to ingest all the readily available .emls out there.

yippeee.

This is starting to feel like a long process, but I'm committed now.
