Email sounds like a really nice solution! Using email as a
human->machine interface is actually quite nice, but you need some kind
of spoofing protection, but GPG solves that problem already.

Using simple "subject=path", "body=content", you can easily update your
server with a fitting server-side daemon.

I like!
