there is a bunch of examples to parse the ini files in PHP. You can even
do one on your own:
1. loop every line
2. if format is [**] then this is the key
3. everything till the empty line is a key = value pair
P.S: please, when replying click on "new email" and cut&paste the email
address. If you click "reply-to" and change the "to" and "body" to your
own so it looks like a new post, some of us still get it as a thread of
the previous one.
