Hi
I am currently the following work flow on a Windows XP Pro machine:
a) look for daily mail from company X
b) download the attachments into a folder
c) using PGP desktop decrypt the files
d) upload the files into a DB using Tomcat server running on Linux
e) generate an excel file and mail it
I have been doing this for several weeks and practically sick of it. I
would like to automate this process. I found out that PGP command line
for Windows XP is an expensive proposition. What I would like to do
is:
forward the daily mail from company X to a linux box
and do the rest of the steps using cron.
I'd seek the help of this forum about the availability of tools and
feasibility of automation.
Sendmail runs on our linux. I don't know these
a) how to instruct sendmail to process the attachments
b) how to decrypt the files on linux (can I download some GP licensed
software)
Thanks for your help
Depending on your situation, which I don't know fully, it may be
easier to use fetchmail (instead of trying to rely on Sendmail to do
any processing). Grab specific emails with fetchmail, and process it
via procmail. Decrypt PGP files with GnuPG ( http://www.gnupg.org/ )
You can then (with the use of perl modules) translate the data into
Excel files using a perl script.
