I would ask you if you have a Webserver license? Even if you don't you can
use the server for 1 hour as trial.

It is a lot easier and efficient as well as accurate to do what you are
trying to do, although more expensive. However I would recommend using the
Web features of 4D as it saves a lot of headaches and opens up more
possibilities for your current and future development.

You would create an HTML email "Form". You can embed into the HTML objects
your 4D references.
So for instance a "Name" field could be named "Name" or anything else that
makes sense in your 4D database. You can also use 4D fields directly but I
never use that method so I can't comment on it's use.
You will need a "Submit" action button in the form to make this work. This
submit button must point to the URL that the 4D Webserver is listening to.

Look at how the Webserver works with 4D Tags and you will get an idea of how
to do it.

Sorry if you already knew this, but just in case

Cheers

If you are looking for someone to write the code for you, you are asking a lot, 
it is a big project. However all of the pieces are documented with the 4D api.

Work through the process and break it in to small chunks, for example in part 
of your process you will want to be able to send an email from 4D. So look at 
the api.

The api has a lot of examples:

http://doc.4d.com/4Dv15R5/index.en.html 


For example here are several examples on sending an email

http://doc.4d.com/4Dv15R5/4D-Internet-Commands/15-R5.1550/SMTP-QuickSend.301-3013199.en.html
 


From this link:
$Host:="www.4d.com"
 $ToAddress:="adup...@4d.fr"
 $FromAddress:="jsm...@4d.com"
 $Subject:="Sales Report"
 $Message:="Can you send me the sales report for January 2009? Thanks."
 $Error:=SMTP_QuickSend($Host;$FromAddress;$ToAddress;$Subject;$Message;1)
 If($Error#0)
ALERT("Error: SMTP_QuickSend"+Char(13)+IT_ErrorText($Error))
 End If

For reading emails look at the IMAP or POP3 commands depending on the mail 
protocol you want

http://doc.4d.com/4Dv15R5/4D-Internet-Commands/15-R5.1550/IC-IMAP-Review-Mail.201-3013097.en.html
 


All of the parts to what you want to do are there. You just need to put the 
pieces together to solve your particular problem.

You can do anything in 4D :)

For your case I would suggest using the 4D Internet Commands to create, send, 
load and extract the email messages: 
http://doc.4d.com/4Dv15R5/4D-Internet-Commands/15-R5.1550/4D-Internet-Commands.100-3013094.en.html

You also might want to consider 4D write pro for creating html email messages 
it makes them easier.

[stardata.info]

Hi All,

In one 4d application i need to do these things:

1 - With 4D i send an email with an HTML code included with some questions.
2 - The user open the mail with the his mail manager application, 
compile this questions and send the mail answer that contain the 
questionary
3 - In 4D i need to receve this email and take the answers for save the
