IMAP Jabber Bot

This is a simple script that connects to an IMAP server, checks for new mail every 10s and sends jabber messages to a specified account for each new mail.

You can send a message to the bot in the form "read x", where x is the number of the mail, and it will reply with the body of the email.

You need to create a config.py file in the same directory, which looks like this:

config = {
    'imap_host': 'imap.example.com',
    'imap_user': 'andy@example.com',
    'imap_pass': 'imap password',
    'jabber_to': 'example.jabberid@jabber.org',
    'jabber_user': 'your.jabberid@jabber.org',
    'jabber_pass': 'jabber password'
}

Why?

It's just a quick hack I wrote to give me convenient access to my emails, since I always have a chat window open for IRC anyway.
