Contact 'Leads' Distribution

Distributes the contacts you receive sequentially to emails in a list.

Use case

When you have a sales team and would like the contacts received on a form to be equally distributed between them.

How to Use in cPanel

1. Create an email account that will receive the contacts Ex: sellers@domain.com
2. Create the email accounts where the contacts will be distributed.
3. Upload the script to the server. (note: DO NOT use a public folder)
4. Change script privileges $chmod 744 contact-distribution.py
5. Change the list of sellers (the same as you created in step 2)

# list with sellers or emails for distribution
sellers = [('Seller 01', 'seller01@domain.com'),
           ('Seller 02', 'seller02@domain.com'),
           ('Seller 03', 'seller03@domain.com')]

6. Change the primary receiving email. (the same one you created in step 1)

s.sendmail("sellers@domain.com", sellers[nextSeller][1],
           msg.as_string())

7. Add a new forwarding to the mail distribution.

8. Forward it to the script.

Done.
