Title: Upload by email?
Post by: taucher_0815 on August 27, 2006, 09:13:46 am

Hi all!
First of all: Great Software!!!

Is it possible to have an "email-upload" for users?

I am thinking of the following:

A User registers on the gallery and provides an email-address. He then can send an email with some images attached to a specific email-address. The server looks from time to time into this mailbox and processes the email in this box. If a valid sender-email is found the images are extracted, the images are sorted into the apropriate user-gallery and the email is deleted.

I have seen this feature on a different site and it works great. You are also able to send images from a mobilephone via MMS to this mail-address and the images are put into the associated gallery.

What do you think?

Greetings from Berlin...
