Thanks, Jeff. That makes perfect sense. E. B. is probably right that qpopper can be hacked pretty easily to do this. I know the original poster didn't ask for other alternatives, but I'd like to share one. For something like sales or support it's probably ideal to have all requests in a central location for tracking, auditing and building up a database of customer info. and history. If the emails are distributed this is rather difficult to do, at least without a lot of manual work. I think this is best handled by a CRM tool or by piping the email to a script that stores it in a DB, with a web-based tool that gives each user access to the queue and allows flags to be set - open, closed, active, etc. and with timestamps and notes for each activity and a record of the support person involved. My 2 cents. -- Steve Werby President, Befriend Internet Services LLC http://www.befriend.com/ _______________________________________________ cobalt-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-developers
