[bootstrap]

The idea is quite simple - i guess we all searched for something without a result.
Instead of writing that down and retry the search every now and then, we should have a tool in amule that does that.

Imagine:
1. Searching for "pizza - big fat ugly thing with cheese.mp3" - no result
2. press button "auto retry"
3. get some kind of a "notification" if amule finds that stuff (popup?)

It should be possible to set up some retry timings - something like try every 'n' hours and remind me if nothing found in 'x' days".

I like the idea.

I think it adds too much stress to the network.

If someone wants something, either they search for it on e2k link sites (much more reliable than a *mule search) or take the time and effort to remember and do the search themselves.

Short and simple - no.

In facts this feature should only ask for the files once daily for a given timeframe (a month?). That doesn't create lots of traffic, but it would make life easier for people that keep searching rare stuff.

Personally i don't like ed2k link sites - most of them provide lots of illegal content. Also they most probably won't share old and rare stuff.

or take the time and effort to remember and do the search themselves.

that's exactly what i don't want to do. This what this feature is all about.
