Anything is doable. The question is how much effort will you have to put into it to make it work. Turbine's scheduler is very easy to use and can handle the job scheduling part without a problem. I would also suggest that you look at the James project. You might be able to extend it to process the mail as it is received. Perhaps they support plugins or something... I have never really looked at that project. > Thanks for any help. > > Regards > > Shaun Campbell > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
