IF you send IFTT an e-mail with a hashtag, then launch a Logitech Harmony activity

Connect

I am using an Android app called AUTOMATE to run some flowcharts to determine when I get close to my house via GPS, weekdays, between 3 and 7PM (after work). At that time, the flowchart uses my Gmail to send an email to trigger@recipe.ifttt.com. This provides the quickest, almost instant trigger of the IFTTT recipe and turns on my A/V receiver to the NET input (Pandora) via my Harmony remote. Now, when I get home, there is music playing!!

If

Email icon
Send IFTTT an email tagged

Send IFTTT an email at trigger@applet.ifttt.com with a hashtag in the subject (e.g. #IFTTT) and this Trigger fires. You can optionally add a single file attachment (up to 30MB) and IFTTT will create a public URL to the file as an Ingredient.

Then

Harmony icon
Start activity

This Action will start the Harmony Home activity you specify.
