Share using e-mail

[maximus]

Parse imap e-mail attachments.

But in case security it need be in user setting:
1. Chcekbox - yes/no parse emails
2. Password - which must be compared with subject of email

Send e-mail with attachment to -username-@domain.tld and catchall will be parsed.
Working e-mails jump over catchall.

Any interested?

Sorry but I don't understand what this is all about.

Ok, I will explain.

1. Send e-mail to username@yourdomain.tld with photo attachment
2. Attached photo will be uploaded to username

This is actually fantastic idea!

From what I understand, it's kinda like publishing article by email in WordPress.
Although using username@somedomain.com would require IMAP backend to parse usernames from SQL database, so it's probably better to use single email like chevereto@somedomain.com that chevereto will periodicaly check and specify 【username+album_name+some_kind_of_token】 in subject field.

Now, if this won't be accepted, I wanna make mod like this! ( ^ω^ )

I meant exactly this one. I thinking about mod too.
There is some examples as: http://stuporglue.org/recieve-e-mail-and-save-attachments-with-a-php-script/
But not this function.
I think it will be great improvement.

If you done this mod, please inform me 🙂

@maximus
There is also native PHP IMAP extension. http://php.net/manual/en/book.imap.php
While it's not enabled by default in php distros, it's still available on many hosting platforms.

And of course I message you if I create such mod. It's your idea after all.
But lets wait for Rodolfo's response 😉

 

[maximus]

No problem 😉
When you have some problems with this feel free contact me.
Of course Rodolfo too.
I work many years with PHP and other platforms..

I've saw that in services like Tumblr but I don't have plans to implement that in the near or far future for now. I think that I already have plenty things to do, but it could be added in an upcoming major version.
