I use smail here, and I can set an smail alias that appends yada's
incoming mail to a designated file:

	yada "|cat >> /some/path/to/file"

Whether such aliases work in other MTAs is beyond my ken.


A program like 'deliver' or 'procmail' can also divert a user's
incoming email to a file.

JP,

if I do that then I would have create a script to scan that /some/path/to/file and extract the pdf file which I think will be a part of the email message in BASE64 format and then convert it to pdf right ?
