About the email gateway:
* it\'s working for new topics and reply to topics
* obviously it\'s not immediate (it\'s running every 1 min)
* no daily-digest support (it might not be hard to implement it though)
* in the email you get, all posts are from \"cocos2d-iphone\". I\'m using
gmail as smtp, and it won\'t allow to use different emails as the
\"from\"...
* when posting, the xmlrpc gateway needs your user/pass, right now,
I\'m using my own, but we could create a generic gateway user. The
problem with this, is that all posts will come from that user. A
solution (which is working right now) is to store the user/pass in the
same db: if an email is found in the inbox, search for the user/pass
in the db, if none found, use the generic account. This might be a bit
of a \"security issue\".
Good news is that the gateway is really portable, just a simple (ruby)
script that everyone can run. It supports multiple users, but this
security problem is bothering me... I still have to think some
solution in order to see if there\'s a possibility to not store the
password in the db (maybe sending the password of the forum in the
subject, the email is deleted/expunged after reading it, so it won\'t
be stored).
Anyway... I\'ll post the code and detailed instructions in a few hours.
cheers!
