Setup One Mailbox for all trac projects

[mark_kids@…]

Is it possible to have the option to setup just one mailbox for all trac environments? My idea is that each trac site will have its own mailbox alias. In this way it would be easy to maintain just one primary mailbox account and not having to add one for each. There will be one MDA value configuration and you don't need to specify the project name. The project name will be parse from the mail's "TO:" value.

Just some clarifications. You do not have to setup mailboxes. You just have to step aliases. So for each project you setup an alias with thw right arguments. When you want to parse the to-field you have to setup your own script sand then supply the right arguments to email2trac.

I'm using fetchmail configuration since the mail server is remote. So for
every project I'd make a MTA configuration.

I was thinking of just passing the "To:" to email2trac as commandline
parameter just like "--project".

Just a thought. Can you use fetchmail with procmail and then parse the to-header and if there is a match call email2trac with the right --project <anme>. email2trac first opens the project and after that is parses the email, see:
