I'm afraid iRedMail doesn't support this.

May i know what you want to do after mail arrived?

I know it is not supported, but I'm thrown another forum, because I install IredMail ...

Yes immediately after receipt of the e-mail

OK, then what does your shell script do?

Just a simple WGET

/etc/postfix/newsmail.sh EmailDest@mydomain.com

#!/bin/sh
mail = $1
wget -O /dev/null http://www.mydomain.com/cron/imap_news_ … hp?m=$mail
exit

Re: Run a script after receipt of email

I guess you want to post sender/recipient address to this URL, right?
If so, you can try this:

*) Enable Amavisd to log basic info of in/out (sent/received) emails in SQL server. Reference: http://www.iredmail.org/wiki/index.php? … in.Amavisd
*) Write a new, separate shell/python script to monitor Amavisd database to check whether there're new mails arrived.
*) If new email arrived, do whatever you want in your script.

This way, you don't need to touch iRedMail configuration at all. Hope it helps. smile
