Author using php to read emails
Justin

2006-08-29, 4:02 am

Hi, is there anyone there who can provide me with a solution for the
scenarion below?

========================================
=====================
Scenario:
A designated email add eg : justin@smsit.com.my
clients will send mail using their own email with an instructed format.
subject : abc, def, ghi
email content: text only with a limit of characters.
Send email to justin@smsit.com.my

Can i use php to read the mails, capturing all the fields (subject,
content etc) and then process the values with my system?
capturing the sujects,mail values and assign to the variables, using as
a parameter for a certain process (php, mysql as well)

Thanx.

Regards,
Justin
