You basically configure sendmail to re-direct mail to a shell script -- which can of course be in PHP. I know for sure you can do this for incoming email, as I managed to stumble through it. Once. (And I do mean stumble.) I'm guessing that outgoing email can be done the same way, more or less. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
