well, IIRC, the mail is available at the stdin, right? So in your script.php
you may do a fopen ("php://stdin") and read it. You can either save it to a
temporary file (assuming it's a big one) or process it in memory.
Now, I dunno if qmail also sends via environ the mail size, but I guess there
should be a way to figure it out.
Given the mail into a temp. file, you can use all imap_* functions on it, of
particular interest being imap_rfc822*() functions for example.
I once wrote a small and clumsy code for a freemail application (long ago) and
now I was considering something like that for preparsing of the mails at the
incoming time, not reading time as most do, so I'll dig too and if I find
something more interesting I'll let you know :)
cheers,
