Here's a high-level view of what I'm envisioning:

1. Our Unidata application sends an email to the outside world, giving
the recipient certain options.
2. The recipient hits REPLY, types a few characters and hits SEND.
3. Our rs/6000 receives the email and put it "somewhere".  
4. Our Unidata application could periodically check that "somewhere" for
received mail and do whatever with it.

Thanks for your responses so far.

In short, yes, however, the first question should be: what are you
planning to do with the mail you receive?  I wouldn't recommend using
your application server as a mail server, since to do that, you'd have
to expose it, at least to some degree, to the outside world.

We can send email from our rs/6000 (AIX version 5.3) using sendmail and
it works great.

Is it possible to receive email also?

Thanks.
