I had initially posted in the database forum, but was told that maybe this was a strictly coding question. Hope you guys can help or atleast give me some idea.
I have seen this at a small blogging website where members are allowed to add new entries to their journal via email. I believe they send it to some specified email address and add their user/pass as the first line of their text entry. This is quite useful if you are at work or behind a firewall and can only send emails. I was wondering if anyone has ideas about how such a system could be setup. I'm not looking for code necessarily, just semantics about how I can process inbound mail, but if you have built such a system, please feel free to post.
