  • 1.  Script to handle incoming emails

    Posted Wed July 15, 2020 01:28 PM
    Years ago in a previous life and AIX version, I found a perl (I think) script that allowed me to work with incoming emails by putting it into the smrsh system and redirect via .forward.  I am in need of this again but I cannot find any reference to it or any other script that I could use in a web search.

    I don't want anything real fancy.  I just need to look at parts of the header or body and do something with it.  I would prefer a shell or perl script.  I may want to use this on multiple servers and I don't want to have to install a bunch of extra software.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Did you ever find it?

    Also maybe you could be more precise about what you're trying to accomplish. Running commands from email is insecure, which is why smrsh has a limited command set.
