Thomas and Sjon,

Although I can't add anything to this in forms of highlights or improvement I would like to take this opportunity to express my interest in such an endeavour. Obviously once the RSS feed is generated (is there such a thing as authenticated RSS?) you can then use that wherever you like. i.e. web portals displaying your new mails once you log in, embedded web-based applications linking to roundcube, ticker-tapes showing your mail in firefox/browser of choice. The list goes on.

Cheers, Gavin

Hi Thomas,

Since I don't know GMail Notifier the idea wasn't based on it, but it pretty much seems to do what I mean anyway ;) However, the primary aim of the RSS feed is not just notifying to me. If we would integrate RSS feeds in RC then various applications could be build on top of RC; such as (possibly) a newssite with items coming directly from a mailbox, just by reading an RSS. However; it seems a pretty nice addon on top, integrated into the RC authentication and caching features. I might give it a try when I have some time available, or do you prefer working on API functionality and integration of an external application?

Regards, Sjon

Hi Sjon

I thought that this suggestion would come up one day. I think you have some sort of Gmail Notifier in mind.

I'm not sure if this really should be part of RoundCube because any RoundCube account is authorized by the according IMAP account and the RSS feed should display contents of that IMAP account and no RoundCube specific information.

To achieve this, an independent application/script can be used. I found this to start with: http://www.noaxs.net/imap2rss/

Of course, an API to RoundCube could be useful and it could also provide this RSS functionality as well as the possibility to open a valid RoundCube session which lets you then enter RoundCube without logging in (like Gmail notifier).

I will add this to the roadmap but it will not have a high priority.

Regards, Thomas

I just had an idea that might be usefull for Roundcube to implement. How

about supporting a generated RSS feed of your email; so you can add that to your Firefox/whatever RSS reader; which will then notify you of new email? A link to /?auth=lala&_task=rss would be sufficient. We could show that link for every folder, and add a keepalive call to the RSS read action.

...

Bombs away :P
