search the forums for information about piping e-mail to a script, once you have the syntax you need set the default address on the domain to the pipe

If you are using the shebang line then you need to make sure that the PHP script is executable.

You also need to make sure that the PHP script is not outputting anything, even a blank line can cause problems.

Just do a quick run through of the script and see if everything is in order. You need to access the script from a shell, ideally as whatever user the script is going to be running as. So you really need to SSH into the server as that user, you may need to enable shell for that user to do the test.

Then run the script:

/path/to/phpscript.php >output.txt

The shell will just sit there there, its waiting for input (if the script is coded right -- if you get an error or if the script exits, then you have a problem).

Copy and paste a complete e-mail message, depending on how you've got the script written, headers may be necessary.

When you have pasted that into the shell as the script is waiting for input, hit Ctrl+D to close out the input. The script should process the input and perform whatever task is needed.

If you get an error, then you have a problem.

Review the output.txt file. Is it empty? Does it contain anything? If it has any carriage returns or anything like that, then you have a problem.

Depending on if and where you have a problem determines your next course of action. Unfortunately, I doubt very much that anyone here would be able to help that much as any problems would be a result of a coding error somewhere in the script.

hi , very thank you , my script is :

#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
// read from stdin
$fd = fopen("php://stdin", "r");
$email = "";
while (!feof($fd)) {    
	$email .= fread($fd, 1024);
}
fclose($fd); 
// handle email
$lines = explode("n", $email); 
// empty vars
$from = "";
$subject = "";
$headers = "";
$message = "";
$splittingheaders = true; 
for ($i=0; $i<count($lines); $i++) { 
	   if ($splittingheaders) {    
	   	    // this is a header   
	   	         $headers .= $lines[$i]."n";   
	   	               // look out for special headers
	   	                       if (preg_match("/^Subject: (.*)/", $lines[$i], $matches)) { 
	   	                       	           $subject = $matches[1];
	   	                               }
	   	                        if (preg_match("/^From: (.*)/", $lines[$i], $matches)) {            
	   	                        	$from = $matches[1]; 
	   	                               }
	       } else {        // not a header, but message
	       	        $message .= $lines[$i]."n";   
	        } 
	       	            if (trim($lines[$i])=="") {      
	       	            	  // empty line, header section has ended 
	       	            	         $splittingheaders = false; 
	       	               }
} 
	       	                //For Testing Purposes
	       	                $outFile = fopen("emails.txt","a");
	       	                fwrite($outFile,$from);
	       	                fclose($outFile);
	       	                mail("myemail@yahoo.com", $subject, $message); 
	       	                ?>
