    Description
    This module extends the functionality of mail fetching to support
choosing a mail thread that acts as a mail sink and gathers all mail
messages that Odoo does not know where to put.

Dangling emails are really a problem because if you do not care about
them, SPAM can enter your inbox and keep increasing fetchmail process
network quota because Odoo would gather them every time it runs the
fetchmail process.

Before this, your only choice was to create a new record for those
unbounded emails. That could be useful under some circumstances, like
creating a `crm.lead` for them, but what happens if you do not want to
have lots of spammy leads? Or if you do not need Odoo's CRM at all?

Here we come to the rescue. This simple addons adds almost none
dependencies and allows you to direct those mails somewhere you can
handle or ignore at wish.
