Eric,

Get (and build) "procmail" and setup a command keyed off the subject line.

Here's an excerpt from the man page on where to get the source...

  This program is part of the procmail mail-processing-package
  (v3.11pre7 1997/04/28) available at your nearest USENET
  comp.sources.misc archive, or at ftp.informatik.rwth-aachen.de as
  pub/packages/procmail/procmail.tar.gz.

Subject:  flexfax: faxrm JobID via e-mail




Hello faxers,

I would like to be able to remove a fax job by sending a message to
fax-remove@domain.fax, where the subject line reads

  JobID: 22      (the job to remove)


I've got a few ideas on how I could go about this with expect scripts,
etc. Anyone wish to share how they would go about it?


Cheers - eric
