Simple "mail server" only using Apache?
Is there a way I can set up Apache to put incoming emails into a folder as individual text files (MIME, text, or I guess it'd be cool if Apache has a module to throw it into a database like mySQL with header info already parsed) with no actual complicated mail server installed? I don't need POP3, IMAP, or even SMTP. The idea is that I'll then write a program myself (probably in c++ and running on a crontab) that parses the emails and if it finds a certain line of text it will do something and then delete the email. Basically I'm designing a very lite mail server but for my own very very specific purposes. I have never touched mail serving, but I assume this can be done fairly easily. If you know of some reading I can do or Apache modules to Google, let me know and I'll read up on them myself. Thanks for the comments!

Welcome to Dev Shed.
I don't know of an existing module that enables any kind of email server functions. However, since you can code in c, feel free to make one There's documentation for developers in the Apache documentation.
