grizly - thanks - that looks cool. And lots of comments in the code too :)I'll read up on plugins and give it a spin. And my PHP are very expired.I've started writing an interceptor on the other end. I found they are calling sendmail and it allows me to select a different mailer. So I'm working on a pre-parser. Take stdin, modify as needed, then pass back to sendmail. What I am wanting to do is find a string in the body ( $string = m/^Issue:.*\<(\d+)\>$ ) and then looking it up in a hash. Then I put that returned value in the subject.Like your solution as it is much more generic. I've realized once I start this for one program, I'm in for everything :)
