>>>Hi All. I need a way to be able to automatically read email which is sent to a particularly address. I need to get the senders email address, the subject line, and body text. Then I want to run a vfp program or other script which will send a customized email back to the sender. Any ideas / suggestions?

>Thanks for the info. Is using the POP3 component a simple case of issuing a CREATEOBJECT( 'pop3' ) and then accessing its methods and properties for getting the email and the mail details?

Yes,

You use the CreateObject("POP3Wizard.POPWizardCtrl2") command and then you can connect, download and handle messages.

The help file provides a pretty decent overview of the commands and properties available.

I can also help if you need. You can email me as well.

Thanks
