Either exim or fetchmail.There's got to be something out there , I just wasn't able to find it by myself.There should be a plugin somewhere for either exim and/or fetchmail so that it drops every email that it gets into a mysql. The setup should be really simple , I mean whatever comes in just gets dropped into this db with inserts in the from field , to field , and data field.I don't even want to think about the attachments and what kind of problems would that cause.
But then again it still continues it's way onto the user's mbox and from there gets forwarded wherever the .forward file points it to. Probably that's an exim job!!!I'm going to go again through the exim's website and FAQ's , there's gotta be someone else that had this problem before me. Or whatever app can do this.If it's a third party app that sits between exim and mysql that's fine with me. As for the Dabo app , oh I'm a long way from that.I just want them in mysql for now and I'm gonna bother you guys with more after that. --- Nate Lowrie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 11:38 AM, Claudia Firsten > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I don't like it!!One good thing about it though is > > that it kind of like "cats" emails and then you > can > > drop them into mysql but I still need to do a lot > of > > configs .I have to create the db's and all that. > > I don't know maybe there's something I missed, but > it > > doesn't look like a complete solution for me. > > If by complete solution you mean turnkey then no, it > is not.
