hi there

does anyone know whether it is possible to have a form field in an email, in which a value can be given, which value then can be passed to a database for verification.

thanks

If you are referring to reading an email which you have received for information, it is possible. Basically, you need to parse the email for the proper information. How you define the info is up to you. You could just set up a line in the email form which has 'VarName=' and have the data appended there. The trick is to ensure that every email you receive has the proper format.
