Sweets287 Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 I'm sure I've read about this a few years ago but can't find any info on it now. Is it possible to update the records in a database purely through a single e-mail. ie sending a email to the database somehow and using the text or an attachment in the email to update the records. Cheers for any help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Yeah, you could probably do something via imap though if you have shell access to the server hosting your mail you could probably setup something simpler using a shell script. Nothing to do with mysql though (excepting obviously you would need to execute a query eventually). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
