You can call bug_email.pl directly from your aliases file, with an entry like this: bugzilla-daemon: “|/usr/local/bin/bugzilla/contrib/bug_email.pl” However, this is fairly nasty and subject to problems; you also need to set up your smrsh (sendmail restricted shell) to allow it. In a pinch, though, it can work.
