Re: [vchkpw] incoming mail trigger scipts

[Christian Lerrahn]

Hi John,
 I wonder if there is mechanism for vitual mail box(implemented by
 vpopmail) which act as .qmail file that can trigger scripts by mail
 delivery? Do I need to create actual linux account for each virtual
 user for this propose?

I could be wrong but I don't think vpopmail will let you do what you
want. However, virtual users are still enough. What I do is to put
maildrop in front of vpopmail, i.e. .qmail-default delivers to
maildrop. Maildrop will have a domain wide .mailfilter which checks if
the user has a .mailfilter. If there is one, it will be used otherwise,
I just invoke vdelivermail through maildrop.

Cheers,
Christian

Sure, check out the configure options, one of them enables maildrop,  
which essentially means it will run a maildrop mailfilter on incoming  
mail. You can put your logic in there based on whatever you want. THis  
is an alternative to manually doing what Christian says.
