This issue has been discussed several times on this list already..
Isn't it in the howto or readme or something? (if not it should be)
In the alias table of dbmail you have to use ! Instead of pipe (|)..
hmm.. well.. if you use the pipe (|) it will pipe the mail to the
specified command (which is opened using pipe()); if you use ! the
dbmail-smtp will pipe like using | but prepend an mbox-style header to
the message. The used format is of the header is:
From<space>address<space><space>Date
as you can read in forward.c (somewhere near line 140).
regards roel
Even tho' php seems to be a weird solution for piping messages, but
this
should do the trick.

Hi.
As i mentioned a few hours ago, im planning on writing a php script to
handle auto-responders.
I plan on doing this by using the aliases table to pipe to a php
script, which will in turn query a database and check how many times
an autoresponse has been sent to a given email address and determine
whether or not it should send anything.. (to avoid mail looping
problems.)
anyway... I guess the problem im having is getting the data to pipe
out.
Just for testing, i should be able to pipe the data to a file
shouldnt i?
for example:
in the aliases table, i have an entry..
alias:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
deliver_to: |/test.txt
From what i understand this should pipe the data to /test.txt
shouldnt
it?
(yes i have set chmod 777 /test.txt for testing purposes.) but nothing
appears in the file..
In what file ? In test.txt ?
If you want to append to a file try:
deliver_to: '|cat - >> /tmp/test.txt'
If you want to pipe to a script try:
deliver_to: '|/myscript.sh'
where myscript.sh is really a script.
Do i have this all wrong?
