Hi there, I undertand that this is not really a qmail question but am still wondering if someone here could give me some suggestioins. I was asked to do some research on "running instructions contained in a mail body", that is, users send their requests by mails and the server parse the messages and then run the instructions assigned by the requesters in the message body and perhpas if any output, send the result back by mail to the requesters. It works just like a mailing list but of course, the commannds I am talking about are not 'subscribe', 'unsubcribe'..., etc. I, personally, don't like this idea. Firstly I feel that there might be security problems though I can't exactly point them out now, and also, I think the same function could be done easier and perhaps more secure in the form of Web page (w/CGI running). I wonder if anyone out there really have done something like this ? or could someone give some reasons why this is not a good idea, so I could convince my boss ? Thanks in advance, ----------- Wang-hua Li
