I have postfix with postfixadmin and everything stored in a mysql database.
How do I forward emails sent to a mail account to an external command?
Since you are using virtual aliases (postfixadmin w/mysql assumes so)
you'll need to setup a pipe transport in master.cf and proper settings
in /etc/postfix/transports. See the man pages of pipe and transport for
more details than what you'll find in this email.
virtual alias:
foo...@exampe.com foo...@my_custom_transport.example.com
add to /etc/postfix/transports:
my_custom_transport.example.com my_custom_transport:
add to /etc/postfix/main.cf:
transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transports
add to /etc/postfix/master.cf:
my_custom_transport unix - n n - - pipe
flags=flags_from_pipe_manual
user=some_user:some_group
argv=/path/to/my_custom_script vars_from_pipe_manual
This may be incomplete. It is a rough (very rough?) example of the
configuration. I strongly recommend having a look at the pipe and
transport manuals before attempting to implement any of this.
