Posting to the forum via email is not possible, as it can not be done using classic ASP without components beinmg installed on the web server, so is not a feature of Web Wiz Forums.

Yes it can be done
Ive got it working, but you HAVE to use MsSQL Server because of its use of triggers and stored procedures
Yes it does use components, but so does WWF (eg SAFileUp etc.). It uses JMail for the mail checking and a Windows Script for collecting
Yes, it **may** require the scheduling of the Windows Script via Windows Scheduler, but this can also be easily overcome if not possible on a given host, eg Ive used the Global.asa for scheduling events, even the running of ASP pages.

Are you using MS SQL email functions as well?

I use them for sending Email out (CDOSYS) to mimnic the broadcast of a posted message ... but not for the POP checking ... as they aren't appropriate for this.
