Read your newsletters with RSS. Inspired by Kill-the-newsletter! website. Which is also self-hostable but requires to maintain your own mail server. So here is a solution for the lazy.

You need MXRoute account for this to work. Program uses DirectAdmin api to create email forwarders. I have no ability to test it but in theory it should work with other email service providers using DirectAdmin.

I wouldn't trust myself to expose this website to the internet. My suggestion is to run this in your local network and use it with a self hosted RSS reader like freshrss.

Clone the repo, install the requirements.txt

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run the start.sh file.

Once I figure out how to do it, I will tell you.

Pull the repository again and run the start script. It will restart the uvicorn if there is already a running process.

git pull
bash start.sh

To run this project, you will need to add the following environment variables to your .env file

SITE_URL The url you want the site to be accessed. http://192.168.1.1:9123

EMAIL_DOMAIN email domain you manage with MXroute

DAPANEL_URL

DAPANEL_USER

DAPANEL_PASS

INBOX_URL IMAP server

INBOX Mail address to collect all newsletters in the backgroun

INBOX_PASS

FETCH_FREQUENCY how oftern you want to check for mail (in seconds)

Developed with FastApi, lots of googling and ductape. As the code manifests, I am just an hoppyist. If you find a bug or something, let me know I may or may not fix it...
