Description

R says:

The Autonomous Information Service only send out their news in html formatted e-mails with pictures and stuff attached. I dont know where they make their news. However, If there could be a script or a function that translated their e-mails and attachments into news on the newswire.

Email is kind of good because people don't have to do anything to get the info, it just shows up

They produce two a week, very good stuff. Always documented, international and radical. And this is where it hurts my heart: http://indymedia.dk/article.php?id=366 This is the best they can get out of our current site

Y says:

In theory it is possible to allow auto-sending into the newswire, basically it would mean taking the text and the big images and making an article out of them.

R says:

I would like to have a wire where you could allways go and read Autonomous Infoservices mails in html format.

Y says:

would it matter whether they showed inside the indymedia layout

R says:

Not at all. But i'd like them to appear in the newswire. Perhaps as links, to the mail-catcher-script.site.

Y says:

In theory it's just an html file, with attached images, so it's just a question of storing the images and html in a folder.

R says:

Yep.
