Assuming you have postfix: See aliases(7).

Generally you can have the following line in /etc/postfix/aliases:

sms: |/path/to/command


Alternatively, in $HOME/.forward (of user 'sms?' put:

|/path/to/command


However you may want to only send some of those mails. In such a case,
you can use something like procmail to e.g. pipe only mails with a
specific subject (or some other specific header).


Note: I assumed you use postfix. Other decent MTAs have similar
concepts and capabilities.

Right, I didn't read an email carefully. Sorry about that.

Try some MTA(e. g. Postfix)+procmail

That's what I used to text notifications about new mail to my
cellphone.

I use a rudimentary perl script based on Net::POP3 and Email::Filter
to download and sort my messages from a POP3 mailbox.

Similar code could also be placed in a forward file, i.e. launched
the same was as procmail, for every mail delivered.

Perl can easily call a PHP script to finish handling
the mail. Or you may be able to rewrite that part of
your PHP script in Perl.

Will post my script if you are interested.

Wonder if procmail or heirloom-mailx can be of some help to you. I have
used the former to do stuff on my incoming mail and the latter to send
out mail based on some conditions on my machine. Do not much about
internal working of mail protocol, so just wanted to throw this out there.

Please reply to this list only. I read this list on its corresponding
newsgroup on gmane.org. Replies sent to my email address are just
filtered to a folder in my mailbox and get periodically deleted without
ever having been read.

Hi Joel,

I have been searching for some time. And i decided to use postfix.
It is great if you can show me your code. If possible your configuration
too.

Thank a lot.
