If you don't need the message in the actual mailbox you can do that with
your MTA instead.

In postfix for example you setup a custom transport in the master.cf file
that calls your application. Then you setup a transport record for that
particular address which is delivered to your custom transport.

Hi,

Here's the scenario.

I want to set up a mailbox so that when mail sent to the address is piped to
a processing application, instead of going to a mailbox.

One way I can do this is to set up a mailbox and then have an application
that checks to see if there's mail and then processes it.
(Old school Unix script)

Is there a way to set it up with dovecot? 
(Cleaner solution)

Thx

-Mike
