Is this a shared host (I assume it must be or else you'd have access to the
mail yourself)?  And they sent you all the mail from the server?

That's just insane... there could be anything in there from any user of the
system.

If it is a shared host this seems like a major security breach on their part
to me.

If they're form letters it should be easy enough to build a little tool to
pull the information out of each and attach it to a log file.  CFDIRECTORY
over the folder, CFFILE each message, string parse out the info and CFFILE
to a log file.
