Hi Mark,
You will need to setup a processing script on your mailer that will do
that for you. Your ISP maybe able to set this up for you. Most mailers
use the aliases file for that. A quick google found this as an example,
yes it is talking to Oracle but the principles are exactly the same.

Subject: email to db
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to send an email from outlook to a
DB so it updates a record. I have a php tipping script hosted with a
mysql DB but would like users to email their tips instead of loggin on
the site.
Mark
