I am going to be creating a custom email client with twitter (as a playful test) for my me.at.travismccrea.com email address…

Basicaly redirect me#travismccrea.com to abcdef1234@twittermail.com then have my updates set to privet. Then have a way of displaying my twitterfeed in a more “inbox” style.

The only challenge I see, is getting the reply to field taken care of.

Pointless? Yes.

But how many other people will have twitter based email accounts?

Looks like this page is maybe a little dated, but was wondering if the ability to recieve tweets from your friends list will become a feature.

Hello:

I would like to register more than one e-mail account, at least 2.

Best Regards.

@Ben Bradley:

A simpler approach might be…

Use RSSFWD.com to subscribe to the web page’s RSS feed by email.

But enter the email address of your SMS service…. like 2125557818@att.com

This way, you will receive once a day updates from the web page’s RSS feed, via SMS message.

I can’t see why this doesn’t work, but you can make it more simple without using Twitter.

Monitor page using Feedwhip, this generates an RSS feed, then convert this to SMS delivery using Pingie, Rasasa, Zaptxt, or the many others.

Or what about Teleflip, ipipi, for email to SMS.

I’m trying to set up a system so that I can get an SMS when a webpage updates and I’m trying to use TwitterMail as a part of this system, but there’s a problem.

1. I’m using FollowThatPage.com to track a webpage.
2. When there’s an update it sends an email to my GMail bot account.
3. My GMail bot has a filter to autoforward the email to my TwitterMail bot account.
4. My TwitterMail bot account updates my Twitter bot.
5. With my personal Twitter account I subscribe to my Twitter bot to get the update SMS’d to me.

I believe there’s a problem at step 4 and here’s why:
1. I’ve tested the GMail filtered-autoforward to another account and it works.
2. I’ve sent test emails to my TwitterMail bot address, my Twitter bot updated and I got the SMS.
3. My Twitter bot will not show updates from TwitterMail only when GMail auto-forwards =(

Can you help?

Ben
