Basically it would just proxy the content of webarchive with predefined datetime setting. Yes, simply add a file named, say, "retrowww.conf" to the program directory (or to /etc/webone.conf.d/ if you're running Linux) with content below, and WebOne will be a gateway to Web Archive: [Edit] IgnoreUrl …

One thing that wasn't clear from the wiki documentation (unless I didn't look closely enough) -- is it possible to disable the audio/video decoding and remove the dependency on the ffmpeg library? The ffmpeg library pulls in a HUGE amount of other dependencies on Raspbian, adding 700+ MB of …

I think this feature will be good and easy to implement. But currently I have too small free time to work even on major functionality, so I am not planning to add POP3/SMTP/IMAP support in nearest releases. The project is open source, and any contributions will be greatly appreciated.
