One other thing that has always annoyed me about those Vonage emails is that they don’t contain Caller ID information. Vonage already has this data, so why not put it on the email?

My maildrop entry looks like: <pre><code> if (/^From:.*(prodmx\.vonage\.com|vm\.vonage\.com)/) { xfilter "/usr/local/bin/mailfilters/wavmailtomp3" to "mail/._voicemail" } </code></pre> (Where wavmailtomp3 contains the script from above, and _voicemail is my IMAP folder where I filter voicemails to). Are you sure you included the shebang line (#!/usr/bin/perl), that the path to perl specified there is correct (check with /usr/bin/perl -v), and that the script is marked as executable as the user that maildrop runs as? maildrop/xfilter is exactly how I’m running this, so I know it works… it looks like it’s trying to run the script through bash instead of perl.

My maildrop entry looks like:


if (/^From:.*(prodmx\.vonage\.com|vm\.vonage\.com)/)
{
    xfilter "/usr/local/bin/mailfilters/wavmailtomp3"
    to "mail/._voicemail"
}

(Where wavmailtomp3 contains the script from above, and _voicemail is my IMAP folder where I filter voicemails to).

Are you sure you included the shebang line (#!/usr/bin/perl), that the path to perl specified there is correct (check with /usr/bin/perl -v), and that the script is marked as executable as the user that maildrop runs as?
