    Automatic presentation of email on a site

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a way to present an inbox of an email account on a site and don't know how to do it.
    My purpose is to create an email account specifically for a site and to order google alerts for this account. A ggogle alert is a prespecified string, for which google runs periodic searches. The list of hits is a set of web links.
    Could you suggest a way, or a template which provides auch a function?

    I am guessing this is pretty complicated to write by hand since you'd have to communicate between the email server and webserver. I would think that to do this you will need to have your own mail server on your webhost. You should create a dedicated email account on your webserver. Then you should be able to use PHP's mail extensions to connect to that email account on the mail server via POP (which is a pretty standard email protocol). I don't know of anything prebuilt but it is possible!
