// Very simple example:
    // receive an email file on stdin and post that file to an url
    // (e.g. on a Unix-like server create an entry in /etc/aliases:
    // phpmail: |PostNewMail.php
    // PostNewMail.php should be executable and have the
    // #!/path/to/console-php -q
    // in the first line. Don't forget to allow
    // the execution of this program to smrsh)
