[nflug] Automated Email Processing - Retrieve Emails and save along with attachements on Samba share

[Ronald Wechter]

Tyler,

The store as text/pdf is a requirement.  Were looking to store the
emails and attachments on a Samba share.  Eventually, once this first
task is accomplished, I will write a script to send the emails
occasionally to a printer.

I found a project on SourceForge that can send emails to CUPS but I
cannot remember the name of the project.  Not sure if that would be
helpful.  I read through the initial procmail FAQ / Documentation and
will be doing some testing with it.  Not sure if this is the right
path to go down but it looks like procmail can call scripts (Perl,
Bash, etc).
