For the danish cold-war museum, I'm presently setting up a telex system with 
(at present) 3 or 4 Siemens T100 teleprinters (it can  support up to 16).
Apart from functioning as a 60's/70's telex exchange, it can send and 
receive e-mails, and therefore we can in principle update e.g. our facebook 
status.
The e-mail recipients are defined as a number on the exchange, and then this 
number is connected to a table, where the e-mail address is defined.
When receiving, the e-mail is to be sent to the museum at the address 
(example) telex at museum.dk. In the commentline,the text must be ZCZC 
<telexnumber>
Works like a dream. An identical system is installed at the danish it museum 
(www.ddhf.dk)
Theres is of course a limit : characters only, but special characters can be 
translated on the fly
