Question

I am working on a project where we need the mails from our mail server to our system.

For this i did some research on internet. And I came across two terms email piping and email forwarding.

Can anyone through some light on these two terms.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

I’m not sure exactly what you mean…”to our system” but piping from what I recall refers to automatically processing the email and using it as data in some way. For example you might take emails and use the body as part of a help-desk ticket.

Forwarding will just push the email to another place.
