Ralph,

 

Thanks!  I figured out the aliases entry and it's just what I need!

And copy to the list, because replies don't by default.

If your xymon server can receive email, you can set up an alias that
pipes through a shell script, then send status messages to it.  I've
done something like that, but I don't have an example on hand.

Does anyone have a working example of a script which pulls emails from a
specified account and uses that data to set the status of a given test?
I have seen people talk about doing that and am looking for a little
guidance in setting that up.

Thanks,
Bruce
