Forward email from Google Apps to Postfix and pipe them to PHP Script

  • 772

Can somebody throw me in the right direction in order to get emails forwarded from Google Apps to be piped by Postfix to a PHP Script? This answer didn't helped much but to tell me that I need to confgiure a subdomain in order to receive the email and pipe them to a php script. Is it right?

    You will need a MX record pointing at the postfix server, for example:

    host.example.com IN MX postfixserver.example.com

    Then you can set up forwarding to forward to [email protected] where address is the alias on the postfix server that's piping to the script.

    Also, be aware, only system aliases in /etc/aliases can be piped to scripts in Postfix, virtual aliases can't be setup to use a pipe.
