The brief
Teams and communities often need messages to reach people in more than one place at once — a signal channel that should also post to a group, or an announcement that needs to land in Telegram, Discord, and email at the same time — without anyone manually relaying it.
What I built
A configurable Telegram message forwarder bot that mirrors content out of any group or channel the account is a member of, no admin rights required. It supports three forwarding modes:
- Telegram to Telegram — forwards messages from one group or channel to another.
- Telegram to Discord — forwards messages from a Telegram group or channel into a Discord channel.
- Telegram to Email — forwards messages from a Telegram group or channel straight to an inbox.
Tech stack
Python, the Telegram Bot API/Telethon, Discord webhooks, and SMTP for email delivery, running as a persistent background worker.
The result
- One source message, delivered everywhere it needs to be, instantly
- No admin access needed on the source channel
- Runs unattended once set up, with no ongoing manual work
