|
|
Hi guy's,
i use your MMSDairy lately, works fine on with my samsung e800 (vodafone 'The netherlands').
But wanted to install Peff together with that catch mail program so people can mail the MMS picture/message. But as i read this forum it only seems possible on a linux machine.
Is there somebody with a solution on a windows based machine?
Big thanks for any reply!

I am working on a replacement for the recmail.pl script that only requires PHP. That should probably be easier to make work on Windows because it's just PHP straight through. The problem remains though that you must somehow be able to set a script to run on all incoming emails to the entire domain. I have no idea if this is possible on a windows machine.
Will post the replacement script when I have something working. |

| Code: | MailGrab is a command-line POP3 Internet mail retrieval utility.
MailGrab can be used to automate the retreival of incoming e-mail into
text files.
Binary attachments are automatically decoded into either the current
directory or a directory you specify.
Attachment-processing can be turned off so that the entire POP3 message
is downloaded as one single text file.
MailGrab also has an option to check the status of your POP3 account.
This status check returns a special return code to the calling process
so that it can determine whether or not mail is waiting.
MailGrab will run under Win95/98/NT.

| This is a completely different thing but there is nothing that stops you from doing it this way if you like. That is a Mail popper program - a program that retrieves mail from a POP3 mail account. You would then have to send your messages to that account, have the mail popper program pop it off and then having some other script to insert the attachments into a database. As I say - a completely different thing. The email functionality in Peffisaur handles incoming mails on the server side, not client side. The script is only called when email arrives. If you want to use a intermediate mail account and a mail popper you would have to poll that account (run the program at regular intervals). A completely different thing...not to say that you cannot make it work, but different. |
