I would like to try running a script based on information from a database or else have the script read the email from a pop3 account online. I'm not sure how to do either and I'm not sure if this is a common question, but if somebody could give me some pointers, that would be most awesome
I'm developing a webform which can submit the information to either and I'm trying to see which would be simplest. The script would just be running the scripts such as if this is present, then do this....If this is present, then do this... and so on.
I'm kinda newbie at developing macros so detailed information would be best

Thank you so much!!!

Reading pop3 is easy, just check out the RetrievePOP3> command in the program help for the info you need.

Thanks for the reply! I checked it out and I see that I can download the emails to the computer via a .txt file. Is there a way that it could
1. Take each email individually (such as a que..one at a time)
2. Process the Body area of the text
3. Then delete the email without needing to download it to the computer
