Hi,

So I haven't done anything like this before but I'm wondering if it's possible.

Really all I want to do is have my website look at a certain inbox (I'm assuming the one that my host gives to me would be easier to connect) and compare any email sent to me with the emails in my database. Then add the message sent to me into a table. This way everyone who sends me email is automatically added to the website under someone's profile. Maybe I could have a database table that simply takes in emails and their respective messages? but how would I automatically get it in there in the first place?

I also want to do it the other way but that just involves taking everyone's email and pasting it into a new message form.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have a look at the imap/pop3 [php.net] functions.
