<h2>Integrated email/SMS receiver</h2>
<p>
If Tracks is running on the same server as your mail server, you can use the integrated mail handler built into tracks. Steps to set it up:
<ul>
<li>Go to <%= link_to "Preferences", preferences_url %> and set your "From email" and "default email context" for todos sent in via email (which could come from an SMS message)</li>
<li>In sendmail/qmail/postfix/whatever, set up an email address alias to pipe messages to <pre style="font-size:1.5em">/PATH/TO/RUBY/ruby /PATH/TO/TRACKS/script/runner -e production 'MessageGateway.receive(STDIN.read)'</pre></li>
<li>Send an email to your newly configured address!</li>
</ul>
You can also use the Rich Todo API to send in tasks like "do laundry @ Home" or "Call Bill > project X". The subject of the message will fill description, context, and project, while the body will populate the tasks's note.

<h2>Add an Action with Applescript</h2>
<p>This is a simple script that pops up a dialog box asking for a description, and then sends that to Tracks with a hard-coded context.</p>
