Jabber → Evernote

Preamble

After I started using Evernote, I realized what I still lack - the ability to send notes via Jabber. And quickly, and unnecessary gestures are not necessary, and always at hand. The search for evernote-jabber-bot was not successful, so I began to look for other ways. There were two such ways ...

1. SMTP transport

The method is based on the ability of Evernote to receive notes by email. Unfortunately, I did not manage to make any of the public smtp2jabber transfers work, so you can only build theories. I would like, nevertheless, to try it in action to avoid the drawbacks of the second method (about them below) - the owners of jabber-servers or experts in open transports, respond!

2. Tweet.im

The method is based on the ability to receive notes via twitter. Not without flaws, but “just works”. So, step by step guide:
1. We are registered on Twitter (if not yet);
2. Follow the myEN bot and wait for it to follow you (a few minutes), after which we confirm the connection with the twitter account via the Evernote web interface;
3. On tweet.im we connect Twitter with a jabber account: to do this, you just need to fill in a form of four fields, then authorize in a jabber bot;
4. Add myen@twitter.tweet.im to the contact list, optionally - we give it the name Evernote (that's what the soul wishes);
5. We start writing notes through jabber .

In order to immediately dispel doubts - notes when contacting myen@twitter.tweet.im are not duplicated on Twitter, but are sent to the bot in person

A fly in the ointment or why I would prefer an SMTP transfer

1. Twitter-bot does not respond very quickly - the delay is usually from two to five minutes (this fact even made me first doubt the efficiency of the method). It could be worse, but it could be better.
2. This is Twitter - 140 characters. However, the situation is brightened up by the fact that the format of notes-through-jabber rarely implies a great length.

Conclusion

So, we have one good way that does not work, and a way with a couple of flaws that works quite well. Posting via Twitter is enough for me, but if there is an open and working smtp transport, I will definitely switch to it. I would very much like to draw the attention of Evernote developers - it seems to me that the implementation of this functionality (or at least debriefing with the performance of a twitter bot) will not be superfluous.
