Email Ticket System

[Claude]

I need something that will take incoming email to a specified email address and save them to the server, much like a ticketsystem.

I don´t need an entire ticketsystem, just to get the emails saved to the server as a txt-file. I can manage the rest from there and program the stuff in need from there., but getting the bloody things saved to the server without any manual works is my big problem. (PHP or Perl, thank you)

Please point me in the right direcction, thanks

And yes, I have been doing this:

Bugzilla will do this for you. Its ment for software delopment, but could be easily used to run a helpdesk.

http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/

There is a email interface to adding bugs.

As Bubs from homestarrunner.com would say..."check it out check it out check it out check it out check it out check it out check it out check it out .."

No, I want people to forward the spam the recieve. I´m building a spam-archive.

A few from a quick search on Freshmeat.net ..

archivemail:

archmbox (archives mbox style mailboxes):

Lurker (looks pretty sweet, actually.. might check into this for my own uses lol):

mbox2mysql (not a text file, but archives mbox format E-mail to mysql):

Mirphealy Mail Archiver (this one is in PHP):

Probably not exactly what you need... but a place to start. If you are looking for a ticket tracking system (which you said you aren't, but I looked at the thread to see what people were recommending)... the few we use are;

PerlDesk (decent, a few problems though but easy to work around):
http://www.perldesk.com/

RequestTracker (pain in the ass to set up, but very very nice):
http://www.bestpractical.com/rt/

The nice thing about request tracker is that there are a lot of 3rd party reporting modules, etc written for it... 99.9% of them are free Would be pretty easy to write a spam reporting module.

If you are truely just looking for something which will dump all E-mail sent to a set address to a text file, any half-way competant coder should be able to do something in perl in an hour or less.
