I'd use the inbound feature APIs of Mailgun/Sendgrid/Postmarkapp. They take care of receiving and parsing and can call a URL on your server with new email content. At least in the beginning you can concentrate on the business logic ("accurate response") and don't have to worry about character encodings, parsing attachments or such.
- sethammons 7y agoThis is a perfect response. I'm biased towards SendGrid as I work there :) You can totally do exactly what OP wants. Use the inbound parse webhook, get mail forwarded to your HTTP webhook/endpoint, do whatever you want, and then you can even reply using the email API of the provider. No reason to sweat the mail server stuff.
- chidog12 7y agoI appreciate the both of you. Will definitely jump on SendGrid and get started.
