While there are some things Perl doesn't do as well as other languages you would be hard pressed to find something it couldn't do at all. While I haven't written anything like what you describe, it sounds like a Perl job to me.
You might want to take a look at the CPAN archive to see if anyone has a module that would help you out. I did a quick search on search.cpan.org and found a bunch of modules dealing with e-mail, so there's a good chance some of your work was done for you. Good luck, Peter C. -----Original Message----- Currently, I'm trying to find out a way to automatically save email messages (from MS Exchange / Pop3) to text files in a directory. I am planning to write something in VB but would like to try perl. Could someone please tell me whether this can be done in perl so I don't waste time following a dead end. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
