Pipe (Fetchmail)

Maybe you want to add emails via Fetchmail and Procmail to Zammad.

To get this to work you need to pipe your emails to rails.

Command line

su - zammad
cd /opt/zammad
cat test/fixtures/mail1.box | rails r 'Channel::Driver::MailStdin.new(trusted: true)'

Fetchmail

Create .fetchmailrc

su - zammad
cd ~
touch .fetchmailrc
chmod 0600 .fetchmailrc

vi .fetchmailrc

#
# zammad fetchmail config
#

poll your.mail.server protocol POP3 user USERNAME pass PASSWORD mda "rails r 'Channel::Driver::MailStdin.new(trusted: true)'"

That's it. Emails now will be directly piped into Zammad.

Using Procmail for advanced features like presorting

If you want to do some more with your emails, like presorting to a Zammad group or filtering spam, you can use Procmail.

Fetchmail config looks slightly different.

vi .fetchmailrc

#
# zammad fetchmail config
#
poll your.mail.server protocol POP3 user USERNAME pass PASSWORD mda /usr/bin/procmail is zammad here

Create .procmailrc

su - zammad
cd ~
touch .procmailrc

vi .procmailrc

# --
# Pipe all emails into Zammad
# --
PATH=/opt/zammad/bin:/opt/zammad/vendor/bundle/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:
SYS_HOME="/home/zammad"
RAILS_ENV=production
GEM_PATH=/opt/zammad/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.3.0/
LOGFILE="$SYS_HOME/procmail.log"
#VERBOSE="on"
