[GLLUG] processing incoming emails

Is it possible to process incoming emails for commands and retrieve any file
attachements from the email?

 

 

Specifically I want to setup a special email address where my friends can
send maps that they have made for a game we play (BHD).

 

I want to be able to extract the map and upload it to an ftp server, and
scan the email body for info that could be added to a mysql database.

 

Is this possible?

 

I run gentoo linux using qmail for my email server.

 

Thanks,

 

Seth
