# This script writes emails piped from postfix into separate files. It also removes | |
# new line delimiters which causes issues when viewing in Outlook. | |
# | |
# Setup: | |
# | |
# It requires lines in master.cf that looks something like this: | |
# | |
# to_filesystem unix - n n - - pipe | |
# flags=FR user=emailuser argv=/root/mail_write_script.sh ${recipient} ${queue_id} | |
# | |
# And for main.cf to route to this output, e.g: | |
# | |
# default_transport = to_filesystem | |
# | |
# Finally, a user called "emailuser" will need to be able to execute this script and write to the | |
# directory /opt/mail. | |
# | |
# Script: | |
# read from stdin | |
DATA=$(cat) | |
# variables passed from postfix | |
RECIPIENT=$1 | |
QUEUE_ID=$2 | |
# remove =\n and replace with \n | |
PARSED=$(echo "$DATA" | sed ':a;N;$!ba;s/=\n//g') | |
# calculate directory | |
DESTINATION_DIR=/opt/mail/${RECIPIENT}_${QUEUE_ID}.eml | |
echo "$PARSED" > "$DESTINATION_DIR" |
