Java Scan all mail messages through the server and save a copy into file system following a rule
In our company we work for our customer with a job# philosophy, managing all the informations about a job in a share with directories whose name is starting with job number. Under this entry point we have a standard structure of folders, comprising a "communications" folder.
When we send emails concerning a job, in the subject we put first of all 4 digits representing the job number. I need to save automatically a copy of these messages into the correct place, despite of sender or destination/s.

Now, I know the first step has to be the management of messages passing the smtp (postfix) analizing the subject to find the four digits. First idea could be modify the spamassassin filters/rules to get the work done, but something is telling me it's not a so good idea. So, here the first question: what's the correct place to interact with postfix having the message dubbing? Also thought about aliases, but I'm not sure it's possible messages dubbing instead of redirecting.

After this, a perl or php script can surely do what I need, but this will be next novel.

Thanks to anyone could be interested in this trial.

Ciao, Roberto

nwpjmv

NWPJMV(1)							      nwpjmv								 NWPJMV(1)

NAME

       nwpjvm - Move print job to Unix queue

SYNOPSIS

       nwpjmv [ -S server ] [ -h ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -q queue name ] [ -c command ] [ -j job number ] [ -d ]

DESCRIPTION

       nwpjmv is a program that connects to print queues on NetWare servers and moves a designated print job to a Unix queue.

OPTIONS

       -h
	  -h is used to print out a short help text.

       -S server
	  server is the name of the server you want to use.

       -U user
	  user is the print server name at the server.

       -P password
	  password  is the password to use for the print server at the server. If neither -n nor -P are given, and the user has no open connection
	  to the server, pserver prompts for a password.

       -n
	  -n should be given if the print server does not require a password.

       -C
	  By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off
	  this conversion by -C.

       -q queue name
	  queue name is the name of the print queue you want to service.

       -c command
	  nwpjmv  removes  the designated job from the Novell queue and feeds the job file to stdin.  command is the printing command that is exe-
	  cuted for each job. The default command is 'lpr'.

	  You can insert several flags into the command, preceded by %. These are replaced with values retrieved from the queue structure for  the
	  print job.

	  %u: This field will be replaced by the name of the user who posted this print job.

	  %d: This field will be replaced by the job description field of this print job.

       -j job number
	  This designates the ID number of the print job to be moved.

       -d causes extra error messages to be logged.
