Yes, it's fairly common. Search for sailmail/saildocs. But, I have not seen the tools published. I think you want to use procmail for this. -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Davis <ke9v@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, April 23, 2008 1:53 PM To: pskmail@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [pskmail] Email Info Server Greetings, I've been thinking of creating an email information processor. Something that a pskMail user could send an email to and receive an email reply with the requested information. Actually I'm just looking for an excuse to play with sed, formail, sendmail, perl and wget. :-) It would work something like this: - a user sends an email request with a keyword like "INFO" in the subject line. - the processor responds by sending a complete list of available information that can be individually triggered by Subject line request. - using Subject line keywords (or keywords in the body), specific information could be returned via email. A simple example might be a request for the latest ARRL Letter -- a bit more complex might be a request to return the last 5 or 10 eHam reviews of a certain piece of equipment. Latest propagation bulletins, other newsletters, last five blog entries with comments, the first chapter of a public domain book, etc. The list is endless; anything that might be useful to a traveler who uses pskMail for communication while away from home. But here's my question -- am I re-creating the wheel -- does this functionality already exist? -- 73 de Jeff, KE9V
