    <p>There are two ways to do this, as I see it:</p> <p>First, you can use an existing SMTP server/email box system and, on an interval, pull the messages from that mail box using POP3 or IMAP to insert stuff into your database/system.</p> <p>Alternatively, you can write an implementation of SMTP that will accept email messages coming in and perform your custom logic to put data into your database/system instead of into a mailbox. This is, ultimately, a cleaner design that will have much less overhead. In fact, there may be an SMTP server implementation out there somewhere already that will allow you to inject this kind of custom logic (I'll edit if I can find one).</p> <p>Personally, I'd go with the second option. This will give you much more control over what's going on in your system and it will have an overall cleaner design.</p> <p>Good luck!</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> It's not PHP, but <a href="http://james.apache.org/mailet/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">JAMES</a> from Apache is a Java mail server that allows you to inject custom mail processing units (called mailets) to handle mail processing. You could write such a mailet that will process email messages and put the updates in your database instead of a mailbox. There may be other projects that implement this kind of design, so it's worth a look.</p> <p><strong>Edit again:</strong> Ooo... here's an open source <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpsmtpd/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">php SMTP server</a> on SourceForge. I don't know that you can inject custom logic, but you can always edit the source and make it do what you want! (If you insist on PHP anyway)</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
