General Help & How-To / Re: Forward incoming email to mailing list
« on: October 23, 2016, 11:26:32 am »
Scott,
It's easier if you just setup forwarding on the email address directly on the server... however you'll have to remove all those forwards when you're done. There's a way to write a shell script (Linux/Unix) to do that, instead of trying to write that auto-forward PHP script you speak of. Writing that auto-forward script is frowned on by most hosting providers, and most do not even allow it any more, or if they do, it's not reliable.
The forwards I speak of can be done from cPanel, just click on Forward, and select the FROM, and enter the TO address, the email does not look like a forward (I don't believe), it's just a straight copy of the original email to the TO address.
I hope that helps... if you wish further assistance, I would be happy to work with you on this, for my standard consulting fees, contact me at the page listed below (in my signature).
