Have a look at the readme, "CMD aliases" section.
I think this is what you need.
Providing the TO user does not exist, then a file datafax.tab in
$MAIL_ROOT/cmdaliases/company.com will be executed.

datafax.tab
-----------
"external"[TAB]"0"[TAB]"300"[TAB]"path/datafax.exe"[TAB]"@@FILE"[NEWLINE]
-----------

All you need to do now is write a script (path/datafax.exe) that takes the
first arg passed as the message file and copy it to a work area, and extract
the file contained there-in.
If the message is MIME encoded, you could use mpack/munpack for dos
(ftp.andrew.cmu.edu:pub/mpack/) to decrypt it rather than leaving it as an
..eml or .msg
Then copy the final file to your \share and clean up.

Davide,
Can you let me know if I got this right.

Also I noticed what may be a typo.
In the CMD ALIASSES section, the line "When a mail from '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' is
received "
I think should be "for" not "from".

Thanks, Rob :-)

We want to create a new user called datafax and notify the company to send
these reports to this new user at datafax @ company dot com once we get it
set right. I would like only a single copy to go into the server share and
not leave one in the mailbox...

Is this possible?
