# Slackmail

Slackmail is a simple email-to-slack proxy.

## Why

You've got a service that supports email notifications for unexpected/interesting

events.  That's great, but you check Slack way more than email (and/or you want to

share the news with a team).  Instead of badgering service XYZ to add support for

slack, just run this server and have them "email" you: `[email protected]`.

## Installation

```

pip install [--user] git+https://github.com/iodine/slackmail

```

# Running

By default, the servers listen on localhost, port 5025.  This is to simplify testing

locally.  But feel free to run on port 25 and just add an MX record to have it

operate as a "real" email server!

## Simple single hook server

```

slackmail-local\

  --webhook-url='https://mydomain.slack.com...&token=123'\

  [--listen-address=host:port]\

  [--authorization_token=secureME]

```

If you specify the `authorization_token` flag, only messages containing the token

somewhere in the subject or message body will be forwarded to Slack.

## Database enabled server

```

slackmail-db [--listen-address=host:port]

```

The default database used is just a SQLite database called `mail.db`.  It will

be created in whatever directory you run the slackmail-db command.
