Is it possible with Rev Studio? How about with externals? I need to write a program that will parce an email, restructure it, and then send it as a new email.

Thanks - can you email me adventuresofgreg@gmail.com

Hi Greg,

this is ofcourse possible with Rev, no external necessary!

You could e.g. use these nice libraries for SMTP and POP functionality from:

scroll down to "Sample Stacks".

Thanks Claus! I'll take a look at those demo stacks. If you are interested in the application,

I am crossing the Pacific ocean in a special human powered boat. To communicate my position to my support boat if we become separated, I can press a button on my GPS tracking device and it will trigger an email to get sent from a server to an email list with my current GPS location coordinates. There is a way to 'resend' this email if restructured a bit to my support boat's Iridium satellite phone.
