Do you know any scripting languages such as PHP?
In the past, I made a PHP script to read mail, open the attachments and then
act upon the contents of said attachments. I was running the script with
cron, but nowdays I would just make a PHP script run as daemon which can be
stop|start|restart|etc just like any other daemon.
IMHO, PHP is far easier than Procmail.
