using PHP as a mail filter

[dgmufasa]

Hello all,

How can one attach .php code to a mail filter? The idea being that when an email arrives, it will "trigger" the php code to work on it.

TIA

You can use a simple shell script and call your PHP script from it as follows:

/usr/bin/php /path/to/your/script

(This assumes the PHP is located in /usr/bin/php - please adjsut this if necessary.)

Below is the ISPConfig API call to create a filter for the mailbox. I need to use this in the program being written.

try {
if($session_id = $client->login($username,$password)) {
echo 'Logged successfull. Session ID:'.$session_id.'<br />';
}

//* Set the function parameters.
$client_id = 1;
$params = array(
'server_id' => 1,
'type' => 'header',
'pattern' => 'hmmnoe@test.int',
'data' => 'data',
'action' => 'DISCARD',
'active' => 'y'
);

$filter_id = $client->mail_filter_add($session_id, $client_id, $params);

How can I fix this so that it calls the PHP script that you mention?
