Dan: If you're using a Unix system, you can simply add a line to your /etc/aliases file (for sendmail users) or /etc/postfix/aliases file (for postfix users) like such: username: | /usr/bin/script.pl sendmail/postfix will pipe the contents of the message to the script /usr/bin/script.pl when it receives an email for [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Eric P. Los Gatos, CA -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
