Hello
This is my very first question in stack overflow and I am quite excited. Liked a lot the interface of this site and the buoyant community!
I am building a rails app that receives text as an email and creates a post.
I ask or your expert opinion on which is the best option to receive the mail message and process it?
To send the mail to the application:
- A1: X accesses a POP/IMAP account periodically (30s cronjob?) and processes the message
- A2: the message is piped from the mailserver to the application X
To process the application
- B1: rails with MMS2R
- B2: PHP that processes the message and sends a POST in rails
- B3: PERL that processes the message and sends a POST to rails
Which combination A+B would you recommend for a big volume of mails?
Any other A or B option?
Thank you very much and good luck with all your scripting!
