How would you set this up via PHP? I've wanted to do this, but I always thought it was something specific to SendMail, and in a hosted environment, mucking about with SendMail generally isn't allowed...
I'd like to send an email to something like admin@domain.com but have a PHP script get the mail and operate on it...

Does all mail not to a specific address at the site go to a 'catchall' address, which is then polled? Usually the mail is delivered directly to a program rather than to a mailbox. The program receives the incoming message as input and handles it as it pleases. miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
