doc/todo/comment_by_mail.mdwn



I would like to allow comments on ikiwiki pages without CGI.
I have in mind something like

Use a pagetemplate hook  (based on a quick glance at tschwinge's copyright.pm)
in a plugin
add a mailto: url to each page matching some pagespec
this mailto url goes to an address identifying the page  (something like
user-iki-FE653b@host.fqdn.tld).
on the mail receiving end, these messages are either deleted, or ran through
a filter to be turned into blog posts.
the same plugin can check for comments on a particular page next time the wiki
is generated, and add a link.

Any comments? Write them here or send them to [[DavidBremner]]
