Posting twice in the wrong group won't get you the answer faster,
fyi.  this group is for trac.

however, I will give you this bit of info to get you started:
you won't be able to read your email from smtp, that is for sending.
you'll probably want to use pop3

try this:
http://www.python.org/doc/2.5.2/lib/pop3-example.html
or
http://www.devshed.com/c/a/Python/Python-Email-Libraries-part-1-POP3/

you'll then need to parse the emails for whatever you are looking for,
and probably run a cron job.

personally, I would set up an email trigger on your inbox, and have it
fire off an xmlrpc script or something.
