I have no experience with Windows Messenger.
I do not use it and I have not interested to get acquainted with him.
Maybe someone else can do something about this matter.

Hopefully someone could pick this up, would be nice feature...

I am still discovering your plugins by reading through the forums (just found the excellent Scheduleghost - thanks), do you have your own web page or one place where we can see all your plugins??

Unfortunately not, this web page I have not created. I never thought about it. But now I think about it. Maybe.

Hi Pako,

Thank you for this great plugin.
Unfortunately I can not find any function to attachment on an e-mail.
If an event is triggered ,an email with a specific file be sent.
Is it possible to incorporate this feature?
Using this function I would be very happy. :)

Many thanks,
Asuries

Thank you for the appreciation.
But the truth is that this plugin would need revision. Certainly contains a lot of bugs because I was a beginner when I wrote this plugin.

Yes, I have already considered the possibility Incorporate this feature.
I'm now working on another new plugin. Once I finish it, I'll work on the attachement feature.

Pako,

I second the attachment feature.
I would love to be able to download an attachment to a folder.


I found a script that can send an attachment through a gmail account.
send_attachment.py
(6.61 KiB) Downloaded 391 times
I successfully sent an mp3 file.
This was the only script I found that gmail correctly decoded the attachment.

Yes, I plan to add this feature.
However, E-mail plugin requires extensive revision.
Without this revision is not possible to add any other features.
I do not know when I'll do.

No worries, I understand.
Let me know if you need me to test some code when the time comes.

Dear Pako,

thank you very much for the E-Mail plugin. I like it very much.

Unfortunately I cannot connect via TLS to my SMTP server, it always refuses the connection.

Out of desperation I changed the code in line 2293 from

Code: Select all

                    password = self.passSMTP.data[server[0]]
to

Code: Select all

                    password = str(self.passSMTP.data[server[0]])
and it works now! I don't really understand why it works, but it does - very reliably. Maybe the original datatype is unicode and some character conversion fails otherwise?

I just wanted to let you know about this oddity.

Thank you and best regards!

Pako,

Would it be possible to add a selection box for the "Event name:" text. For example, similar to "Payload:" selection box. Screen shot attached.

I wanted to use email "Subject" or "From" as the event name suffix. And have the payload as email "Body".

Thanks,

kalia

Yes, this possibility I may add, it should be relatively easy.
Please be patient.

Great news Pako,

I will try this out this weekend. Does your plugin already support attaching files to sent emails and downloading files from received emails?

Thanks,
regards,

No, there is only added a selection box for the "Event name" (demanded kalia).
