About

This is a Telegram Bot that sends documents to Kindle devices. It runs on Python 3 and uses Postfix and SQLite3.

Try it!

Usage

In order to work, users must register on the bot two e-mails, Amazon's Account e-mail and Kindle's e-mail.

If you need help with your Kindle's e-mail, please, refer to: https://www.amazon.com/gp/sendtokindle/email

Setup

First of all, install Postfix on your computer/server. Make sure port 25 is opened so the bot can send e-mails.

# apt-get install postfix

After initial setup, copy both files from the folder postfix to /etc/postfix.

This configuration will allow e-mails to be sent only from localhost. This is important to avoid spamming from your server.

Make sure to restart postfix and check if its running
