cool @Teerath-Agarwal. Feel free to create a PR whenever you are ready.

I have a sample code ready that utilises selenium in python and sends out the mail. Not really sure about the deployment process though.

@1rsh what will be the benefits of moving to selenium? I am not that experienced in python but I feel upgrading the current codebase to python3 would be faster.
If you want to deploy and run your version of code, you can utilise the Github student developer pack and/or AWS free tier to set it up

@chirag-ghosh The main reason I prefer selenium is that if erp decides to revamp its notice board page then it will be easier to migrate + if we wish to add additional functions then I find selenium to extend. The only drawback I feel is that it is a tad bit slower but since we are already checking the site in regular intervals of time, it won't affect the end result much.

That can be done but we should put it as a target in the long run. Currently making the project up and running again should be our priority I feel.

I have completed the code for this. It is up and running. I wasn't sure how to deploy it for free. I'll share the code maybe on this thread or through some other medium by tonight.

You can deploy it for free using AWS free tier or Github student developer pack. Feel free to create a repository and share it if you want to though.

You can open a separate PR and issue for this discussion. Until we finalize it, we can use the current code (with Python3).
