Heyas. Ok, after successfully updating to dbmail version 1.2 I have attempted to get the auto_reply feature to work.
I am using dbmail 1.2 and postfix. Everything is working great. (except for auto_reply) I have searched through forums and docs and found much discussion on the topic of auto_reply.. but have found no solid answers to the problems people are having. (which seem to be the same problem im having.) i get this in the maillog: Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: GetConfigValue(): searching value for config item [AUTO_REPLY] Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: GetConfigValue(): found value [yes] Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: insert_messages(): starting auto-reply procedure Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: db_query(): executing [SELECT reply_body FROM auto_replies WHERE user_idnr = 7] Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: db_get_reply_body(): found body [This is an auto-reply message for testing.] Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: GetConfigValue(): searching value for config item [SENDMAIL] Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: GetConfigValue(): found value [/usr/sbin/sendmail] Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: send_reply(): found sendmail command to be [/usr/sbin/sendmail] Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: send_reply(): found SUBJECT [testing 123] Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: send_reply(): found FROM ["the dude" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>] Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: send_reply(): found REPLY-TO ["the dude" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>] Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: send_reply(): header fields scanned; opening pipe to sendmail Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: send_reply(): sending data Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: send_reply(): pipe closed Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: send_reply(): reply could not be sent: sendmail error Oct 23 16:07:27 web2 dbmail/smtp[10050]: insert_messages(): Freeing memory blocks ... and the auto_reply of course is not sent. I would be happy to get this working, but i would also be happy if someone could tell me how i can pipe it to an external program. I plan to write a php script which manages auto_replies, but for this to work i would somehow need to pipe the relevent data from dbmail during the auto_reply procedure. I read somewhere that you can do this by using something similar to '|/path/to/program' in the reply_body field, but i cannot get piping to work. Any light anyone could shed on this would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance, Dan.
