A non-web based way of doing it would be to copy the e-mail address,
message, subject etc to an oracle table.
Then have a cron (if using unix) to run a sql script (say every 5 seconds)
which will check to see if there are any messages in a table. If so, the
data can be extracted from the table into unix variables and unix mail can
be called with the unix variables as parameters.
