I can explain how I have setup the service at w...@dommel.be which is running
on a PC with Debian GNU/Linux. Note that in the current state this is NOT
easy to setup with minimum effort and time :-(
1. Create a Email address for your www2email service :
------------------------------------------------------
I have create two e-mail adresses:
w...@dommel.be
www2em...@gmx.com
2. On the PC, create a user www, setup fetchmail to send the Emails to user
www:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In my /etc/fetchmailrc I have :
poll pop.gmx.com proto pop3 user www2em...@gmx.com password
*********, is www here fetchall
poll pop.dommel.be proto pop3 user w...@dommel.be password *********,
is www here fetchall
3. In /home/www, create the following files :
---------------------------------------------
pts/7 jan ~$ cat /home/www/.forward
| /home/www/mail2queue
pts/7 jan ~$ cat /home/www/mail2queue
#!/bin/sh
ulimit -u 10
cat - > /home/www/queue/$$.mail
#cat /home/www/queue/$$.mail >> /home/www/mail.log
pts/7 jan ~$
When user www receives an Email, this Email will be forwarded to the script
mail2queue. This script creates a file in /home/www/queue/ with a unique
number. So for every Email, a file in /home/www/queue/ will be created.
4. create a script that scans /home/www/queue/ for files and send the result
back as an Email
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can find the script that I use at
"http://www.janw.dommel.be/tmp/queue2mail";
5. set up a cronjob that runs this script every 5 minutes :
-----------------------------------------------------------
I have this in /etc/crontab
# w...@dommel.be bot
*/5 * * * * www /home/www/queue2mail 2> /dev/null 1> /dev/null
