Hey Phil -

Good question, with a fairly simple answer :)

Add something like this to your alias file(usually /etc/aliases or
/etc/mail/aliases):

list:
	"|/path/to/script.sh"

important to point out that the space between list: and the " is a tab,
not just spaces.

hth, shout if you have other questions :)
