    Hey,

    Is there away to send e-mails to a script?

    For our helpdesk when people e-mail in it goes to a script that logs it in the helpdesk.

    Many Thanks

    Chris.

    What i do is redirect the email (ie. forward it) to one of the local account for processing via an aliase. ie

    [email protected] -> [email protected]

    /etc/postfix/aliases
    PHP:
    maillistfilter"| /bin/maillistfilter"
    then run 'newaliases'

    process what you need to do in the script and redirect it to your real local mail account with whatever changes or just finish it if it's not to forward the mail on.

    works for me.
