- Throttle message input
- Max 10 creations per minute
- Max 50 recipients
- When adding a new person to a conversation, the new person should get the whole history of the conversation
- Might be implemented by forwarding ALL the previous messages
- OR by concatenating all previous into one new message

Configure Amazon SES
- Automated proposal:
- Reroute bounce and complaints to SNS
- Have a worker subscribe to the topic via SQS
- Have a worker disable emails to hard-bounced recipients
- The worker may email a Google Group to notify us of anything it cannot handle
- Also flip flags in settings for complaints
- Store the bounce/complaint in a blob
- Automated proposal:
- Add methods to send messages according to templates
- Each individual Message should be stored in its final form.
- This design choice would change for very very large notification message volumes.
- Templates:
- Password reset
- Welcome
- Delivery failure
- Entity shared
- Entity changed
- TBD
...
- Extend ObjectType to include a "MESSAGE" type
- Have DBOMessage extend ObservableEntity
- Send a change message when a message is created
- Subscribe worker to the repo-changes topic
- Look for MESSAGE-CREATED changes to process
- The worker should always check to see if a message has already been sent, so that messages do not get resent every time the stack changes.
- Whenever the message sending worker encounters an error:
- Send the sender of the message a notification with the summary of delivery failures
- Add CloudWatch metrics to count delivery failures
- If the message cannot be sent to anyone, mark the sender as the receiver of the message so that it doesn't get reprocessed (i.e. after migration)
- Process change of other ObjectTypes (i.e. ENTITY) for notifications
- Needs additional state: either a link between ObjectID/Type and messageContent or ObjectID/Type and UserID (to prevent messages from being resent everytime the stack blows away the change messages)
