   @alex
   I know this is not related to you, but I don't know anyone who might be able better than you.
   
   I'm looking for email parsing software to receive email, search fr words using regex and then redirect the email if matched or discard it if it doesn't match.
   
   I have a joomla plugin that is doing this but it's +10 years old.
   
   I'm not looking for saas solution, I want something self hosted.
   
   Any idea where I can find such thing?
   Can you create such system?

     Thank you very much for the answer.
     Using gmail is not possible at all. we have few systems that interconnect and we do have our own mail server with +1000 mail per hours from all of our systems.
     
     At the moment, we have this thing in Joomla that I have no idea how it work, or why it's working and how to maintain it. So I thought I'll just look for something modern that we can host on our infrastructure.
     In case it might help you understand better, I've attached a screenshot of what we look for.
     
     I've found out today that the parser doesn't redirect the email to anywhere. It just read the email that actually match the search, and using an API will open a ticket into out WHMCS system with the subject and content of the email.
     
     Any idea?

     @ahmad @josh Now that I think of it, just setting up filters in mailinabox should work.

     Any script that reads an imap mailbox and runs mails through a function and can send mail via smtp seems sufficient... I've used the Gmail API for this before as well

     (for reading a particular label a bit more quickly than imap sync worked, but this was a dumb hack)

     If you host your own mail your mail server supports this and somewhere a package installed 300 inscrutable perl examples to do everything you can imagine probably

     Filters will just delete the rest of the email. It won't keep it. Right?
     So I'll lose everything that doesn't fit the regex.
