Alex & Matthias, Thank you so much for your help. I have made a quick test with a php script, and when I entered the path of the php script, the mail forwarder detected a problem with the script (it needed to be made executable) and added the following line at the top of the script : #!/usr/local/bin/php -q Then everything worked fine : emails were forwarded and the php script ran fine.
Then I made a test with an .irev script; the email forwarder also detected an error in the script, but was unable to fix it, so the test failed : the email bounced and was considered as spam. I guess I need to follow Matthias advice and ask on-rev the path to the LC engine on our server. I have one more question though : which server global do you use when you want to trap the content of the forwarded email (content, sender"s name & email, attached docs if any...) ? I'll keep you posted on my further tests. Best, jbv > Hi jbv, > > Alex is right.
