Re: [IMail Forum] Program Alias

When a program alias recieves the message it creates a temp file that can be 
parsed, have your executable read the body and copy it to a text file. We 
parse the body for commands and perform actions based on those commands

Subject: [IMail Forum] Program Alias


Hi,
Today I've been trying to use the Program Alias facility in iMail for now 
to
simply store the email as a text file (as outlined in the KB article:
http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-19980116-DD11.htm). This works fine but 
I
want to extend it further now.

So, I've written a little EXE which simply creates a TXT file, when 
running
this text file on the server it runs fine and creates the text file but
nothing happens when being called by iMail, iMail doesn't even touch, so I
thought it was because it wasn't in a batch file, so I wrote a batch file
which simply calls this exe (START d:\SupportTicketer.exe %1). Again when
running it from the server its fine but nothing happens from the email
account.

Has anyone managed to get the program alias to work further than a batch
file and if so could they give me a few pointers, I would like to log the
email to a text file for now :)
Cheers.
Tim
BTW my C# code is:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
FileInfo t = new FileInfo("redbird.txt");
StreamWriter Tex = t.CreateText();
Tex.WriteLine("I am running");
Tex.Write(Tex.NewLine);
Tex.Close();
}
