works as a postprocessing filter, allowing it to work on mdwn, wiki, html,

+Isn't this functionality a part of what [[plugins/toc]] needs and does? Then probably the [[plugins/toc]] plugin's code could be split into the part that implements the [[plugins/contrib/headinganchors]]'s functionality and the TOC generation itself. That will bring more order into the code and the set of available plugins. --Ivan Z.

+[[!tag type/format]]
+
+The `mailbox` plugin adds support to ikiwiki for
+rendering mailbox file into a page displaying the mails
+in the mailbox. It supports mbox, maildir, and MH folders,
+does threading, and deals with MIME.
+
+One hitch I noticed was that it is not currently possible to treat a
+maildir or an MH directory as a page (i.e. just call it foo.mh and have it
+transformed to page foo). I'm not sure if this is possible and worthwhile
+to fix. It is certainly workable to use a [[!mailbox ]] directive.

+This plugin is not in ikiwiki yet, but can be downloaded
+from <http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git/ikimailbox.git>

+ * As discussed at [[todo/l10n]] the templates needs to be translatable too. They
+ should be treated properly by po4a using the markdown option - at least with my
+ later patches in [bug#530574](http://bugs.debian.org/530574)) applied.
+
+ * It seems to me that the po plugin (and possibly other parts of ikiwiki) wrongly
+ uses gettext. As I understand it, gettext (as used currently in ikiwiki) always
+ lookup a single language, That might make sense for a single-language site, but
+ multilingual sites should emit all strings targeted at the web output in each own
+ language.
+
+ So generally the system language (used for e.g. compile warnings) should be separated
+ from both master language and slave languages.
+
+ Preferrably the gettext subroutine could be extended to pass locale as optional
+ secondary parameter overriding the default locale (for messages like "N/A" as
+ percentage in po plugin). Alternatively (with above mentioned template support)
+ all such strings could be externalized as templates that can then be localized.

+[[!tag type/useful]]
+
+The `postal` plugin allows users to send mail to
+a special address to comment on a page. It uses the [[mailbox]]
+plugin to display their comments in the wiki.
+
+This plugin is not in ikiwiki yet, but can be downloaded
+from <http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git/ikipostal.git>
+
+Details:
+
+ * Adds a mailto: url to each page matching some pagespec
+ (currently every page gets a comment footer)
+
+ * This mailto url goes to an address identifying the page (something like
+ user-iki-blog~I\_hate\_markdown@host.fqdn.tld).
+ [more details](http://www.cs.unb.ca/~bremner/blog/posts/encoding)
+
+ * on the mail receiving end, these messages are either deleted, or ran through
+ a filter to be turned into blog posts. I have
+[written](http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git/?p=ikipostal.git;a=blob_plain;f=filters/postal-accept.pl;hb=HEAD)
+ a filter that decodes the address and writes the message into an appropriate
+mailbox. The changes are then checked into version control; typically a hook then updates the html version of the wiki.
+ * work in progress can be
+
+ - [cloned](http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git/ikipostal.git), or
+ - [browsed](http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git/?p=ikipostal.git;a=summary)
+
+ * I would be interested in any ideas people have about security.
+
+The current version of this plugin is now running on my home page. See for example
+[a recent post in my blog](http://www.cs.unb.ca/~bremner/blog/posts/can-i-haz-a-distributed-rss/).
+Unfortunately although the [[mailbox|todo/mbox]] renderer supports threading, I haven't had
+a chance to implement comments on comments yet. --[[DavidBremner]]
