Email Checker

Now this may be an odd request but does anybody know of any email for openwrt that could be infused on my pineapple

heres the situation

I would like to set up my pineapple so i can use it out and about BUT. i wouldnt be the person implementing it , therefore , when they turn it on , i am going to have no way of finding out its IP address , im talking across the same lines of DDNS and no-ip

INSTEAD, what i would like to do is to create a gmail account especialy for my pineapple and have it check its email every 10 - 20 minuites , while on the other end from my work station i can use the services i have found here at http://www.mailtracking.com of tracing emails , i would like to pretty much , email my device to find out where it is, is this possible?

just setup sendmail in rc.local to email you an output if ifconfig

would that not just be local ip though ?,

In the message headers, you'll get the pineapples ip. Or you could do:

wget http://ipchicken.com | mail -s "IP address" <you email>

Make a no-ip host and use reverse ssh.
