Send file to kindle with Telegram Bot and Outlook

Workflow Overview

This workflow automates the process of forwarding e-book files to a Kindle device using a Telegram bot and Outlook email.

Setup Steps:

1. Telegram Bot Setup:
   Create a Telegram bot via BotFather and configure its credentials in the workflow.

2. Outlook Email Configuration:
   Set up your Outlook email credentials. (Currently, only Outlook is supported, but you can modify the workflow to support other email providers.)

3. Amazon Kindle Email Setup:
   Find your Kindle device's email address from your Amazon account. This will be the recipient address for the e-books.

4. Allow Email Sending to Kindle:
   Ensure your Amazon account is configured to allow emails from your Outlook address to send files to your Kindle.

Workflow Explanation:

• The workflow begins with a Telegram bot trigger node that listens for new chat messages.

• When a new message is received, the workflow checks if the message contains a file attachment.

  • If no file is detected, the bot will send a warning reply to the user in the chat.

• If a file is found, it will be renamed to ensure it appears correctly on the Kindle device when sent.

• The workflow then composes an email with the file attached and sends it to the Kindle's receiving address.

  • If the email is sent successfully, the bot will notify the user with a success message in the chat.

• Only Amazon-supported file types will be accepted by Kindle.

  • If sending fails, you will receive a notification email from Amazon in your Outlook inbox.
  • In case of delivery issues, retry sending the file as network issues may occasionally interfere with the process.
