# Luzifer / automail
|
||||
|
||||
`automail` is an utility to periodically fetch mails from an IMAP mailbox and execute commands based on matched headers.
|
||||
|
||||
One of my personal use-cases for this is to automatically parse payment receipts received from Twitch and enter the corresponding transactions into my accounting software.
|
||||
|
||||
In the end this software provides you with a possibility to match any mail you receive by their headers and execute a script which is able to act on those mails. The script is provided with a JSON representation of the mail on `stdin` and can yield commands (for example "mark as read", "move to mailbox", ...) to `stdout` which then will be executed on the mail.
