Sure - I did this with qmail. In your .qmail file or any file that passes the
incoming mail to /dev/stdin you need to pipe it to a php script. It will look
like this:
<?
$fp = fopen('/dev/stdin','r');
while(!feof($fp))
{
$line = trim(fgets($fp,4096));
if(ereg("^From:",$line))
{
// example of parsing out the From: header
}
}
?>
I had email addresses setup like ezmlm -
ie [EMAIL PROTECTED] or on the other hand
[EMAIL PROTECTED] - then just parse out the
To: address and replace the = with a @ (dashes as well with something else) and
remove the email.
