The content of the email is delivered over the "standard input" (stdin) of the process; the name "pipe" is because this is the normal Unix terminology for connecting together commands in a pipeline. You're crossing from the web-programming world into the Unix programming world here, and encountering confusion from others because they've dealt with pipes for so long that they don't understand a programming model which doesn't deal with pipes routinely. Using Google to search for (Unix pipes for PHP programmers) suggests this Stack Overflow article: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5891888/piping-data-into-command-line-php and the answers suggest that you're after a `php://stdin` URL for accessing the data stream. -Phil -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
