Generating an article from an email in mediawiki

Question

I would like to be send an email to an address that mediawiki can pick up and have mediawiki take it and generate a new page from it as a starting point. More complicated stuff

Answer 1

Have a daemon of some sort running on the server that picks up emails from an account (through POP protocol presumably), use the Mediawiki API to generate stub page.

Instead of a daemon, you could just have a cron job of some form.
