• Read email on Telegram, mark as read/unread, archive/delete and much more.

Basic configuration

First of all, we need to know our username and the bot_token. The username could be configure in your Telegram app settings (also known as alias). To get thebot_token is necessary to speak with the @BotFather and introduce the /newbot command. It will ask all necesary data and finally, it will give to you the bot_token also called API Token.

Launch

We can launch in several ways:

• Docker Compose (recomended)
• Docker
• Python

Docker Compose

To use docker-compose you need to install on your computer Docker-CE and Docker-compose.

Before running it you need to enter the variables in the new file called .env.

cp .example.env .env
nano .env

Finally, we execute the next command and can start to talk with the bot:

docker-compose up -d

If we update the code, you only need to update it (git pull) and relaunch docker compose with the following command:

git pull
docker-compose up -d --build

Docker

sudo docker build -t notmail_bot .
sudo docker run -d --name Notmail_bot \
    --restart always \
    --env-file .env \
    manuellr/notmail_bot

Python

pip install -r requirements.txt
python notmail_bot.py --config_path my-config/my_config.ini
