Email: attach NZB file.

Post by DeXeS »

Maybe a nice feature to get not only a email that the download is done, but also the nzb file. some sort of replacement for the nzb backup folder...

Just a suggestion. If it takes to much time to make, nevermind.

sometimes I downloaded something a couple of weeks ago and I removed it, but now need it again I search the nzb backup folder. Why not just search trough the downloaded complete emails.

Wouldnt it be even nicer if SAB checked an inbox every 10 min and then if a attched nzb was there it would start to download. Were handy for starting downloads from works etc.. :)

I have it listening on port I know is open. I'm one-click-adding to my home-que from work via the newzbin site without problems. (Yes, browsing newsposts does eat up some of the bosses time, but I couldn't care less.)

Don't think I explained it right... when the download is done, you get an email that says that the download is done. so why not also automatically attach the just downloaded nzb file, to the received email

Sorry, but this is a very niche request so is unlikely to be added by one of the developers unless they want it in themselves. Email is currently handled by an external perl script so it is out of my programing knowledge anyway.

Also some .nzb's can be between 2Meg and 20+Megabytes in size, not everyone has the email capacity to hold all the nzb's they download; even with GMail's always expanding space.

You may want to look into some external application that can monitor a folder (your nzb backup folder) and email any item that is put inside.
