This is not a simple script solution. For a start you do not state what technology is used for your site. Is it Static HTML, PHP, ASP.NET. JavaServer or Coldfusion etc?





You then probably need access to the server as you will have to interact with the email server directly. Most hosting packages will not allow this. You will then need to write a program to go through the emails finding the ones it needs and parsing the content to then write to a database. You will then need to write server side code for your site in order to query the database and select the content to display.




It is unfortunately not a simple solution that someone on a forum will be able to help you with. However if you break it down into small parts then people on here and other forums may well be able to help.




Unless I have got completely the wrong end of the stick?

If you have FTP access to your site it may just be a case of downloading the old file, replacing the text and overwriting. That (In code obviously) may be the way to go about it

If it's an SMTP server you can telnet into port 25 and issue SMTP commands directly - not something for the faint-hearted though (especially if the server is configured to not echo back typed input!)
