jerrygarciuh has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I have received some suggestions in the CB regarding this and wanted to see if any other possibilities exist.

I have a script which I wish to run everytime mail arrives for specificaddress@mysite.com . I am not allowed to set up a pipe in etc/mail/aliases on this server (no _root for the wicked). And it is not possible to do so in the SMTP's .redirect file in our local folders. Obviously procmail is one way to do this but I have been told it can be a real nuisance to learn.

What I would like to know is given these limitations, what is my simplest course of action?
TIA
jg
