Bounce processing for pretix

This is a plugin for pretix. Once installed and configured, it makes pretix use random Sender headers for emails like noreply-amCwRFatawEjetS8@pretix.eu for outgoing emails. The From and Reply-To headers remain untouched. It then periodically checks for emails in a specified IMAP inbox and adds replied emails to the log of an order. This leads to an automatic logging of bounces on pretix-level.

Configuration

This requires an additional section in the pretix.cfg config file that looks like this:

[bounces]
alias=noreply-%s@mydomain.com
from_domain=mydomain.com
server=mail.mydomain.com:993
user=noreply@mydomain.com
pass=12345678

The plugin will only be effective for mails sent through the system default mailer (specified in the same file), not for events with a custom SMTP server.
