I have setup a postfix server and wanted to test the piping of mail to my perl script where i can make use of it and filter the mails.I wrote a test script for that which just logs the information in txt file.
but i don't see any changes on sending the mail.
My postconf-n output:
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
append_dot_mydomain = no

config_directory = /etc/postfix

here's my transport:
[email protected] email_route
my main.cf declaration:
transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport
my master.cf declaration:
email_route unix - n n - - pipe
flags=FR user=nobody argv=/etc/postfix/test.php -f $(sender) -- $(recipient)
and my php script:
#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
$fh = fopen('/etc/postfix/testmail.txt','a');
fwrite($fh, "Hello it works\n");
fclose($fh);
?>
I am sending mails through telnet in localhost.
