[ ! ] Linking email to the boards

Board Address: http://w11.zetaboards.com/filozofi2012/index/
Board Software: ZetaBoards
Description: Well, I was wondering whether it is possible to make a script that retrieves emails from a gmail account and posts them automatically as topics on the boards.
Any alternative options of linking a gmail account with the boards should be fine too.

The thing is that I have made forums for my uni class, however most people just use our class' gmail account. If it were possible to somehow transfer the newly arriving emails to the forums, it would give people easier access to them & a nicer background to view the emails on. I hope that this would attract more daily visitors and as a result increase general activity.

This probably takes the "Most Impossible Request" award. I didn't think such an award would have to exist.

We can't link up ZetaBoards with Gmail. It's just not possible.

This request was deemed impractical by our code team. This could mean that the feature you have requested is impossible to write, requires PHP and/or hosting, or requires too many AJAX requests. If you have any questions about why this request is not practical, feel free to contact Moonface .
