Incoming email processing

  1. Hi,

    Is it possible to set up the mail server so that if an email is received by a specific mail account it will load an aspx page passing to it the email information?

    Thanks.

    No. POP3 is not designed to be a protocol that notify users when mail arrives.

    You'll need to periodically connect to the POP3 server and check mail.
