Pipe email from google apps to server php script

I'm wondering if anyone here would have any ideas on how I can pipe [email protected] to our ticket system on our server with our email being hosted via Google Apps.

Is it possible to pipe a specific email address via DNS?

Solution 1:

No there is nothing you can do with DNS. There is probably no way for Google apps mail to directly feed to a pipe.

You could either setup an alias in google apps that forwards to an email address that is hosted on your ticket system server.

You could also setup something like fetchmail to retrieve the email via pop/imap and then send the received messages to ticket system. Here is a page about how to use fetchmail with rt. The exact details would depend on what ticketing system you are using.
