#663 closed enhancement (wontfix)

Enable submission by email (e-mail)

Description

Currently, we do not support submission by email, although this has been a cool feature that the late posterous.com has been supporting.

We should definitely offer a script that is able to poll an imap account and does the submission for us. Bonus points for (close to) real-time submission via IMAP IDLE?

Hi Spaetz, thanks for taking the time to add this feature request. Sorry it hasn't seen a response sooner.

Email submission would be a useful feature, but given that this will be complicated to build reliably and that it may only appeal to a smaller number of people, I don't think it can be a priority for the project at this point in time.

Rather than keep this ticket sitting around, I'll close it for now. That's certainly not to say that it couldn't be implemented at some point - just not right now.

Thanks again for the suggestion.

Regards,
Ben
