12:47 <@ bartman> hey, you know what would be cool… if you could ahve an email-to-irc proxy 12:48 < muffy> bartman: Please explain why that would be cool. 12:48 <@ bartman> then people, like Tyler, who have opprisive French overlords could use irc by just emailing a bot 12:48 <@ bartman> ofcourse IP-over-email sould be even cooler
12:49 < muffy> But how would Tyler receive messages? One email per message would be too much I would think. 12:59 < steve> the bot could send (digest) messages to respective users when their username appears in the line 12:59 <@ bartman> nod
13:00 <@ bartman> queue up for a few seconds/minutes and then purge in one email 13:00 <@ bartman> even private conversations could be maintained bu using the Reply-To: tag 13:00 < muffy> I suppose. But that takes them out of the general conversations. I would think queueing up and sending every few minutes might be better. 13:01 < steve> i still like my way, send iff their username appears in the line 13:01 < steve> so long as everyone “plays nice” and addresses it to them, they get messages important to them 13:02 < dave0> Would be simple to take the evil at http://www.dmo.ca/projects/hacks/IRC/ircnotify and put it in a .procmailrc 13:02 < muffy> Well, we could always give them the option of whether they want just messages addressed to them or global ones. 13:02 < dave0> but mailing of digests is a little more painful 13:03 <@ bartman> steve: note that you didn’t “play nice” 13:03 < steve> i never do 13:04 <@ bartman> getting only the addressed messages would be pointless 13:04 < steve> oops, that should have been 13:04 steve never does 13:04 <@ bartman> you would get only 1% of the conversation 13:04 <@ bartman> and no context 13:04 < steve> i meant for the name to be a “trigger”, which would then send the digest from the last trigger to now 13:05 <@ bartman> a trigger, not filter… gotcha
13:05 <@ bartman> there would have to be a timed trigger too
