Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/karakeep-app/karakeep/issues/183

First of all this project is great. Been following and just got it running over the weekend.

Are there any plans for an email forward link into Hoarder? It's one of the features I'd miss most from something like Readwise.

Use case:

Paid/normal newsletters that come into an inbox so you can set up a rule to auto forward.
A more catch all mechanism if the apps are not available or extension does not exist (Safari etc)

The usecases make sense and I had a friend who asked about exactly that as well. However, I think that instead of bloating hoarder itself with the integrations, this can be achieved by external services (the ifttt like services for example https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n). Basically, you can configure it such that every time it receives an email on a specific address (or a telegram message, etc), send a webhook to hoarder to bookmark that URL. And maybe hoarder can provide ready-made templates for those services to integrate with it instead.

Sounds like you can achieve a lot more integrations by using such services instead of building them inside hoarder itself. What do you think? I still haven't made my mind on either options to be honest.

Pretty cool use case, I might actually make use of it as well. With a REST API it would then also be possible to automatically tag them, depending on the source.
However I also don't really see an email forward feature working. Hoarder is self-hosted, so for this to work someone would have to provide an email adress where you can send your emails to import into your personal Hoarder instance, which is very unlikely to happen.
The other way round (hoarder polling your emails to import stuff), would then require a lot of extra config. Maybe in the future, if everyone gets bored and doesn't know what else to implement, but right now, I think n8n is a great alternative as well.
