How to automate replies to a specific question in LinkedIn Messages? - linkedin

People message me about how I got my internships.
I give them the same reply every time; I even made a Google Doc that I just link them now instead of a proper reply.
Is there a LinkedIn-Rules-Friedly way to automate this kind of reply?
All I want is:
if (message.includes("how") && message.includes("internship")) { LinkedIn.reply("<link>") }
But LinkedIn Support told me it is against the rules to make a bot. Hence, how do I do it without one? Is there an rules-friendly API for this? Who can I contact to get permission?

How to get a Telegram Bot to search documents posted in a channel?

I was getting started with telegram bots and I was wondering if there's a way to get a BOT to search through the files posted in a channel (and possibly download them, if the user asks for it).
For instance, if a BOT has a command "/search" and the user searches a file using certain keywords, then the BOT should answer with the requested file, if found on the channel, and it should also provide an internal link to download it.
I noticed that the APIs provide a getFile method that maybe could be useful in this case, I just wanted to know if this thing is achievable!
Hope I've made myself clear!

Track if the email is marked as spam

I have an asp.net autoresponder that sends emails to millions of subscribers. I want to track if a person mark my emails as spam. is there any way to do this?
Thanks in advance.
No, there isn't. After your mail has been sent to your receiver's SMTP server, there's no way to track it down anymore.
I know what you're thinking: how can some mail-clients track down wether an email has been read or not (e.g. in Outlook). They can do this by adding a little img-tag to their mails (html). When a user opens the mail, it'll open the path specified in the img's src-attribute. Since that's a script (like PHP or something), it can automatically sets a flag to 'seen' when a mail has been opened.
Of course, there are some other ways to track this down, but I think this is the most popular one.
However, this can't be done to check whether a mail has been rejected, deleted or moved to the spam-folder.
I would recommend http://www.mxtoolbox.com/ as an example of sites to use for checking if your server/sending IP is blacklisted.
You can also sign up for feedback loop services with major or relevant email providers for your list(s) to be informed when messages are reported as spam. Feedback loops are probably the best mechanism for the information you are trying to gather.
Example of a feedback loop and how to subscribe to it:
http://postmaster.aol.com/Postmaster.FeedbackLoop.php
I can't post more than 2 links but if you Google "feedback loop" and the name of the email provider you are likely to find what you need to sign up for their alerts.
Hope that helps.

How to process a google-checkout "buy-now button" transaction?

Google-checkout has a wizard that creates the html code for the button, but how do I have my website get confirmation that the transaction has been completed (or that it wasn't)?
EDIT: I have already seen pages such as https://developers.google.com/checkout/developer/Google_Checkout_HTML_API_Notification_API#Receiving_and_Processing_Notifications and the like. But I don't know how to implement them. For example: what is "HTTP Basic Authentication" , "HTTP request headers" , "HTTP 200 response code" , "POST" , etc.
So what I need is a simple (!) example with minimum code.
You would have to implement Google's Notification API. You can read about it here: Implementing the Notification HTML API.
Edit
In Response to:
Thanks. But unfortunately I don't know enough web developing to know
how to apply what is written there.
I'll be honest with you. Simple is relative and if you aren't familiar with some of the fundamental concepts as POST and request headers, it's likely you will never get a simple response.
Having said that, I believe the simplest solution for you is to manually confirm the transaction upon receipt of the confirmation email.
I envision that you would have some sort of management screen that displays a list of all 'pending' transactions. When you receive your confirmation email from Google, you would simply mark the corresponding transaction as having been completed. This is not entirely uncommon. In fact, since you are using single-item purchases using the Google button, this is probably the best option for you.
A more complex scenario (again not a simple solution), would be to create a service that will parse your emails and using some voodoo to map those emails to the corresponding transaction in your web app. This, though, is probably as advanced as implementing the Notification API.

Is there a way for to receive comment notifications using disqus without registering?

I am using Disqus, and I'm trying to find a way for commenters to receive notifications of replies to their comments (or new comments) without registering with disquis. If using native wordpress comments people can check the little box that says "receive notifications" and receive messages when there is a new comment. However, when using disqus people have to register to receive those notifications. Many commenters don't want to register for another service, so people aren't getting notified. Is there any way to make it easier for people to get notifications?
After researching and talking with disqus, this can not be done. As a free service they want to direct users back to their site to set up an account in order to get features such as comment replies. I've decided to go back to wordpress native comments.
