Topic: Execute program on e-mail receiption

[Soren]

Hello,

I have a C program, that I want to be executed everytime a certain user recieves a mail. I've heard that if I place '|/my_program' in the .qmail file it might do the trick.

Unfortunately I really can't figure out where to place the "magic line" to make it work? Perhaps you could help me out.

Thanks in advance...

Regards
Soren

You need nothing but your line in the .qmail file:

| /absolute_path_to_your_program

Remember your program will be launched as the user so the executable must be able to be run as the user.
