One way would be to use a plain text attachment with a standardized
filename. If there are updates to the list then the new should obsolete
the old and the script can pull non-obsoleted ones.
The problem then is how do you search for them properly? put them all
in the title anyway? then its duplicated.

When i do big lists of packages the title is eg "XFCE Stabilization for
Nov 2016" which is not duplicated and okay.
For single packages the title is just "cat/pkg-1.2.3 stablereq" so then
we duplicate anyway?
