Operating Systems Linux Run PHP script when new email received Post 302462247 by iKris on Wednesday 13th of October 2010 04:05:17 PM

don't want to have a looping solution. Already doing that in the mean time and am trying to move to something a little more real time. How would i set the cron to check if the script is running or not?

@nneo
found something else on procmail another post stated
'got the result i'm looking for through .procmailrc in the ~/ directory of the user'
if that is what you are referring to then i can not find ~/ dir.
Just a reminder that i am using a cheepo web host. so i dont have root access.


I found this post that might be in the right direction
though i am not aloud to post the URL at the moment
this is the there sugestion
Look at using the /etc/aliases file - you can pipe the incoming message to a specific user into a program (or script)

looking @ my /etc/aliases is not there. So not sure how i would continue to use the above solution
