Hi,
I have this request from a user in our organisation. He is using an application that picks attachments emailed to a particular email ID, let's say:
good-man@demo1.com.
Let's call this good-man, the Email Receiver.
So, I created the user account: good-man on the server demo1.com.
I can see the associated mail file /var/mail/good-man is looking okay as it does contain data/mails sent to
good-man@demo.com from others, let's say
good-woman@demo2.com.
The user is saying he wants a mail space (perhaps a directory) from where to pickup the mails/attachments sent to
good-man@demo1.com.
I am not getting it.
We have sendmail on this RHEL 5 box.
So, how do I arrange for a
mail lending space/directory on this box?
I think the user needs something like this:
/var/mail/god-man/:
mail1
mail2
mail3
so that his application can pick the files: mail1, mail2, etc. and do with them them whatever it is designed to.
Any idea/help here?
