There is a mail server which uses ColdFusion templates to handle mail,
logins, etc. I believe it is called the inFusion Mail Server. Ostensibly,
you could customize these templates to suit your needs.
Usually, however, this is done with "Mailbox Agents," executables that are
run when a mail server receives a piece of e-mail for a specific user or
group of users.
If an agent alone won't suffice (you really need a ColdFusion template
executed), another solution would be to write an agent in C (or even in VBS
or JS if your mail server is on NT) and have that call the ColdFusion
template. This method incurs quite a bit of overhead as we're talking about
multiple servers, the network, the Web Server, etc.
There may be other options depending on what exactly you're trying to do. If
you post some more information, we may be able to help you out a little
more.

Subject: Parsing Email
Does anyone know how to take an email that is sent to someone and have CF
parse it/check for string and then perform some action?
Thanks!
