Get Real-time Push Notifications for Critical Emails

Email is Too Slow for Emergencies

When a server crashes or a VIP client emails you, you can't afford to wait until you check your inbox. You need a Push Notification that wakes up your phone, even if it's in Do Not Disturb mode (using critical alerts).

How MailHook Helps

MailHook converts the incoming email into a webhook. You can simply point that webhook to a push notification service.

Recommended Services

1. Pushover: Simple, one-time purchase app for iOS/Android. Excellent API.
2. OneSignal: Great for developers building their own apps.
3. Pushbullet: Integrates across all devices.

Setup Example: Pushover

1. Get your User Key and Application Token from Pushover.
2. In MailHook (or your script), configure a POST request to: https://api.pushover.net/1/messages.json
3. Send the email subject as the message title and body as the content.

Payload Structure

{
  "token": "APP_TOKEN",
  "user": "USER_KEY",
  "title": "Email: New Lead",
  "message": "John Doe just signed up via email...",
  "priority": 1
}

This ensures you never miss a beat, without cluttering your phone with every single email.
