Alarm when mail arrives

[Dongosaure]

Good morning,

Could someone tell me if there's a possibility to fire an alarm when a specific mail arrive ?

That would be very useful for us.

Kind regards.

Patrick.

If you know the user, who is going to receive the specific mail
AND the mail server, as postfix, has the users' inboxes in one big file such as:

/var/spool/mail/<username>

you could create an item with key vfs.file.regmatch[file,regexp] looking for that specific thing you expect in the mail.

Or else, if you just expect any mail, check for growing file size on that inbox file.

Hope that helps,
Jerry
