Re: Running a script on a server

Brian, AFAIK, PHP isn't good for handling incoming mail. You can use procmail to direct mail to various PHP scripts, but I think this is not a very efficient method. Here's how I solved a similar problem. My host offers plusmail, which is some stupid proprietary non-configurable mail-handling app. The way it handles forwarding is through a file called redirect. Whenever the database of user e-mail addresses is changed, my PHP scripts will update that redirect file.
