is this possible?

hello all! i was wondering whether is it possible to write a script using asp to read incoming email headers.

i would like to read the subject line and store the ones that match the pre-defined subject line, more like a functionality of an email filter

for ex, say i've an email abc@hotmail.com, and i've a predefined subject line "hey you". i would like to capture all emails that are sent to abc@hotmail.com with a subject line "hey you"

so i was wondering if i can make asp to check the email account, ofcourse by giving valid creditials, for that matching subject line.

ofcourse, the request will be intiated by the user everytime he/she wants to check if they have recieved any emails matching that subject line.

any tips or ideas r welcomed. TIA

If you are using asp 3.0 then you would need to use a com component to do this. JMail is one such component that allows you to do this. In this case just use the .subject property of the Messages collection.

hey miranda, thanks for the reply. is there any free ones out there that i can use?
thanks!
