Re: [PHP] pipe email to php?

[John S. Huggins]

The forum PHP program package Phorum has something like this available.  I
believe it is a file called phorummail.php.

I remember using it as a basis for another program and it really does a
good job of indentifying and splitting headers and body of emails into
assorted variables.

Re: [PHP] pipe email to php?

[Michael Geier]

The real question is why?  What is the purpose of piping the email to a
PHP script?

Are you trying to insert emails into a database?
Are you trying to deal with emails automatically based on subject?
Are you trying to deal with emails from a specific source?

The answers to these questions will change how a PHP script deals with the
input.

Also, you are piping the information to php://stdin and using fgetc() to
grab the data, correct?
