Stop 3 of 3 on the round trip

Revisit

The last stage is the only one that matters: the passage arrives, and you read it again.

Open Recaps in the web interface and select Send recap now. The server selects, renders, and sends immediately. Everything else stays unchanged: this does not shift the next scheduled recap.

The button is unavailable until you add a Kindle or inbox address in Settings.

Relego’s Recaps page, showing configured delivery destinations and the Send recap now button.

Every recap has one entry per highlight: the passage, the book, and the author. On a Kindle, it arrives as an EPUB in your library, so you can page through it, highlight inside it, and leave it half-read. On Kobo, the same recap arrives as HTML in the inbox you chose. Read it there, or send it on to the reader using your usual method.

What you see What to do
No eligible highlights available The library is empty, or everything is excluded. Return to Import highlights, then review exclusions in the web interface
The recap cannot be sent Confirm the server is up with docker compose ps, then check the delivery address in Settings
The send succeeds, no mail on the Kindle The sending address is not on your Amazon approved list, see Deliver
Nothing in smtp4dev The demo profile is not running, or the server is not pointed at smtp4dev:2525

More cases in Troubleshooting.

Once the first recap lands, Relego needs almost nothing from you. Plug the reader in every few weeks and upload its file again in Import. Everything else happens on schedule.

When a passage comes back that you are tired of, exclude it. When one comes back that stops you, weight it up. The library gets better the longer you use it.

The passage you just re-read is back in the rotation, its clock reset. The next book you underline joins the same circuit at Import highlights.
