How to make PHP react to a mail response?

First, can you? And if you can, how? Please give a detailed explanation. I am trying to make a simple error fixing system without using any other pages. I think it would be nice to be able to just send a mail and fix the problem. Not complex problems of course, but small glitches. My site is http://tzeny.comyr.com./

    Can you? If the PHP program has access to the POP3 server, yes. How? Lots and lots of code. But if the email address is your hosting site (IOW, [email protected]), you can't because the server autoforwards the emails to you. You can write a program to read the email on YOUR computer and send another email in response to it (even in PHP if you prefer), but doing it on a free web host to watch an email server on another computer is somewhere between convoluted and impossible.

    I don't understand the question? You can't send an email to a php page?

    As far as I know PHP can only react to URL variables, form variables, session variables, and cookie variables.
