What I'm referring to is not so much the storage of the mail (although it is
highly flexible with iMS) but the things that you can do with the mail once
you receive it. For example, we have a small iMS app running as a demo
where you include stock ticker symbols in the mail and then the iMS uses
ColdFusion to look up the current stock quotes and emails them back to you.
You could do many more things like this with iMS.

Nobody that I know of but my point is that doing so would be trivial. Just
think of all the things you can do with a web server and ColdFusion. Now,
think about all the things you could do with mail and ColdFusion...
