Hey All,

I'm trying to read e-mails received by SendMail using CFDIRECTORY/CFFILE.
Now this may be my lack of Linux experience talking, but mail seems to be
stored in one binary file for each user account instead of seperate .eml
files in a user account directory like in Windows.  If this is true, then
how do I read these user binary files to parse out individual e-mails?? or
tell me I'm off my nut and make a suggestion on how I should go about doing
this ;-)

FYI I'm looking in the /var/spool/mail/ directory which contains 1 binary
file for each e-mail user.  There is also another directory /home/ that
contains one directory for each e-mail user account, but the contents of
these directories do no change when mail in delivered (but the binary files
in the other location get bigger).

TIA

Cheers
