Sure. You can definitively push data to ZO=CB instead of having ZO=CB =
pull=20
them by itself.

One thing though: presently there is no publicly available API to=20
programmatically trigger an import. You will either need to do that=20
manually (e.g. press the import button) or script the Web UI one way or=20=

another if you want to fully automatize your script.

An alternative to the import is to have your script email the messages=20=

directly to ZO=CB by using the application built-in SMTP server. That =
way=20
you would not need to create an intermediary mbox, nor mess around with=20=

the Web UI simply to trigger an import.

If you think in terms of pipes, then ZO=CB's SMTP server could be viewed=20=

has one of its standard input.

Cheers,
