Re: Mail Question

Yes we are using qmail. So all I have to do is create the .qmail-info file and have that point to a php script? - MD On Wednesday, November 13, 2002, at 12:35 PM, Jason Wong wrote:

Does anyone know of a way to achieve the following on linux/apache/qmail/php server

I want to have an email address that when people send a message to,

a php script is triggered and the data of the email is extracted and inserted into a DB for use in a ticketing system. I know how to do all of the above except how to trigger a php script from an incoming email.

It depends somewhat on what MTA you're using to handle that incoming mail. For example in qmail you just create a dot-qmail file which points to the program you wish to use to handle that mail. Courier and sendmail both have a similar mechanism. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * /* You will find me drinking gin In the lowest kind of inn, Because I am a rigid Vegetarian. -- G.K.
