....that runs a URL (cfm file) when I receive an email in my pop3 inbox?

Currently I have a silly process on Outlook when I receive said email, it runs a rule that runs a batch file that runs a URL on IE.

I would love to stray away from this and see if there is any service that does this. Thanks so much!

    1. Have CF poll the inbox periodically to check for new messages and peform the appropriate action.

    2. If your mail server has an API that can perform an activity when new messages arrive use that API.
