Research direction

Start by reviewing the plugin API documentation and the APIs currently exposed to plugins. Determine whether incoming-message subscription and client-like plugin behavior are within the API's scope; the issue does not name files, tests, entry points, or a concrete completion criterion.

Description

new-api

I was thinking about writing a plugin to send a E-Mail containing a receieved notfication, but the current APIs exposed to plugins do not seem to support the subscription to incoming messages. I.e. it is not possible to have a plugin act as a client. At least that's what I'm concluding from your docs.

I therefore want to ask if such a feature is planned for the future.
