Lets say i sent up an email adress "johndoe@domain.com." Whenever someone sends an email to "johndoe@domain.com" the message is sent to a php script where it then parses, and puts relevant information into a database.
A real life example of this is with DeskPro. You can post tickets to your account by emailing a support email account.
Does anybody know how to do this?
recieve mail with php

fortunately php knows how to deal with imap/pop3 servers 
http://php.net/imap
But the script will not automagically be invoked when an email arrives. You have to take care of that yourself (e.g. by polling)
