Now I need to learn how to take the incoming message and process it. I am assuming that the processing can be done by php. Any suggestions, either on how to do this, or where I might learn how to do this?
The simple version of this is to say:
" please click on this link to confirm your membership http://domain/activate.php?id=123&confirmCode=lkj23hkjtq "
In other words, they're activating via a URL, rather than replying to an email... it's a lot more portable than reading emails or pushing emails to command line PHP scripts.
You need the random code (which should be generated upon registration, and kept track of in relation to the userid) to make sure people don't automate the process of confirming.
