MailScanner Text File Creation

[Stephen Conway]

Hello Again:

The custom function sounds like it would work, so I would first set my:

Non spam actions = somefile.rules

In somefile.rules I put the default, to be deliver , and for my per domain
would be:

From: *@domain.com      ?
FromOrTo:       default deliver

Please let me know what I would put here, and how to envoke a custom
function, and if possible what this might look like,

Thanks,

Steve

You would probably need to write a Custom Function to do this, and probably
attach it to the "non-spam actions" configuration option. This could test
for the *@domain.com and write out the message in the files you want.

The alternative would be to archive mail using "Archive Mail" and a
ruleset, then have a cron job that ran every 5 or 10 minutes and processed
the archive entries to generate the processed data you want, then deleted
the original archive files so it didn't process the same mail twice.
