Say, you want all the mail with +[todo]+ in the subject field to be automatically routed to your Things' Inbox.\n\n1. Create a filter so that all subject mails end up in the same folder/label.\n2. \u003ctt\u003egem install things-fetcher\u003c/tt\u003e\n3. Run \u003ctt\u003ethings-fetcher\u003c/tt\u003e in Terminal to generate a default config file at \u003ctt\u003e~/.things_fetcher\u003c/tt\u003e\n4. Edit the config file at \u003ctt\u003e~/.things_fetcher\u003c/tt\u003e to specify your email and so on.\n5. Run \u003ctt\u003ethings-fetcher\u003c/tt\u003e in Terminal.\n\nSet up a cron task to run \u003ctt\u003ethings-fetcher\u003c/tt\u003e periodically.\n\n== Configuration\n\nThe following options can be specified in the \u003ctt\u003e~/.things_fetcher\u003c/tt\u003e file:\n\n[\u003ctt\u003eusername\u003c/tt\u003e] The username to authenticate with. You must specify one.\n[\u003ctt\u003epassword\u003c/tt\u003e] The password to authenticate with. Default is to use the Keychain.\n[\u003ctt\u003eserver\u003c/tt\u003e] The IP address or domain name of the IMAP server. Defaults to +imap.gmail.com+.\n[\u003ctt\u003eport\u003c/tt\u003e] The port to connect to. Defaults to +993+.\n[\u003ctt\u003essl\u003c/tt\u003e] Set to any value to use SSL encryption. Enabled by default.\n[\u003ctt\u003euse_login\u003c/tt\u003e] Set to any value to use the LOGIN command instead of AUTHENTICATE. Some servers, like GMail, do not support AUTHENTICATE. Enabled by default.\n[\u003ctt\u003ein_folder\u003c/tt\u003e] The name of the folder from which to read incoming mail. Defaults to +Things+.\n[\u003ctt\u003eerror_folder\u003c/tt\u003e] The name a folder to move mail that causes an error during processing. Defaults to +Things+.\n[\u003ctt\u003elist\u003c/tt\u003e] The list in Things to create TODOs in. Defaults to +Inbox+.\n[\u003ctt\u003etag_names\u003c/tt\u003e] The tags to apply to the newly created TODOs. Defaults to +Texted+.\n\n== Note on Patches/Pull Requests\n \n* Fork the project.\n* Make your feature addition or bug fix.\n* Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a\n  future version unintentionally.\n* Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history.\n  (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)\n* Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.\n\n== Copyright\n\nCopyright (c) 2012 Andrey Subbotin. See LICENSE for details.\n\n== The IMAP fetching code \n\nCreated by Dan Weinand and Luke Francl.
