Ah, I noticed that script but couldn't find anything invoking it so
gave up on it. :)
Doesn't help that I can't find a command line PHP interpreter for
Debian Linux. :/ Oh here it is, packaged as php4-cgi. How come with
any support forum as soon as you verbalize a problem it almost solves
itself? :D

Hrmm.
eventum@penguin:~$ cat /var/spool/mail/eventum | php4 -q
/var/www/penguin.georgialibraries.org/eventum/misc/route_emails.php 1
Error: The routed email had no associated Eventum issue ID or had an
invalid recipient address.

If I can lick that, I should be able to put that command in a .forward
file like so:
"| php4 -q
/var/www/penguin.georgialibraries.org/eventum/misc/route_emails.php 1"
And then in postfix I need something like this:
allow_mail_to_commands = alias,forward
That works. Well, the mail bounced at least. :D
I see this in route_emails.php:
$associated_user = 'admin@stripped'; // SETUP: this needs to be
configured properly
That doesn't seem to be the problem though.
I wonder if the + in issue+ is being treated as a regexp operator... I
don't know PHP yet.
I changed:
@preg_match("/$prefix(\d*)@$mail_domain/i", $structure->headers['to'],
$matches);
to
@preg_match("/issue\+(\d*)@$mail_domain/i", $structure->headers['to'],
$matches);
and the command didn't give an error, but I can't tell where the email
went if anywhere. So maybe that's not it, and it has something to do
with the sender and user accounts?

I seem real close to getting the first feature working. But why isn't
the Email Integration making use of route_email.php?

Thanks a bunch. This is a very nice looking piece of software and I
appreciate the effort you've put into it. It seems like it could work
for us so much better than anything else out there, which is why I'm
still at it.
