There are several services that provide acceptable mailing lists, but not rss feeds (patreon, ao3, etc) I've also had dumb ideas where I want to run scripts when I get certain emails
So the idea is a modular framework for passing emails to executables, with some support for making rss feeds
Prior Art
- https://codeberg.org/ext0l/sub-rosa
- only patreon, and I don't know/want to learn rust
how it might work
- core maintains a list of $n most recent emails and tracks which it has passed
to plugins
- does it track what it's passed to which plugin so you can add a plugin to historical emails?
- call each plugin and pass email over stdin
- rss builder can be called with a feed name as argument and a post as stdin
- maintains dir of $y most recent posts for each feed, and generates static feeds to somewhere
