Mail server and web server different [message #10859]

In trying to play with Fud's mailing list integration I ran into a rather large (for me) problem.

Seems I need to setup a procmail rule like:

:0:
* ^TO_.*php-general(at)lists(dot)php(dot)net
| /path/to/phpexe /home/forum/F/test/maillist.php 1

But...

My mail server is on a different machine from the web server
and therefore neither has a php executable to run maillist nor
the maillist.php file.

First, even if I could get php and maillist.php on the mail
server (more on that later), can this be done with different
machines or do mail and web servers have to be the same?

My other problem is a rather old machine (mail server) that
can't even compile mysql/php to get me a working php executable,
so even if I could run it from there it may be a moot point without a working php executable.

Anyway, is there any other way I could process a mailing list through Fud or is that procmail rule my only choice?
Thanks.
