I receive server (not the vB server) status updates by email (ASCII) once a day. That email is send by a specific address with always the same subject line.

What I would like to do is to automagically check for that email every so often, and if it is there, create a post from it in one of my forums.

I searched this forum and didn't really find anything that would work for 3.5.1, any idea whether there is such a mod elsewhere, or how difficult it would be for someone to code that?

Thanks in advance.

Sigh, only 7 views at the time of me posting this.
I didn't realize this would be such an exotic request.

POP3 mail would work too as long as the mod doesn't delete the mail off of the server.

I requested a similar feature recently. Will continue watching this thread.

BUMP! BUMP! BUMP! :banana:

But the POP3 option would be more flexible to people I think as well. Not all services carry IMAP for their email.
