  CMFMailIn

      CMFMailIn, a product designed by New Information Paradigms Ltd,
      provides the means to send emails directly in a CMF Instance.

      If an email is sent to an email address corectly configurated
      in your MTA then it will arrive in the CMF Instance ready for
      processing by any Zope method or script.

  Getting Started:

      (More detailed installation and setup instructions can be found in
       INSTALL.txt and in the help system.)

      1. Extract CMFMailIn in to your Zope Products directory
         (i.e. *Zope_Home/lib/python/Products* ).
    
      2. Restart Zope.
    
      3. Place a CMFMailIn tool in you CMF Instance.
      
      4. Add the CMF Skins to your portal_skins tool

      5. Add the MailMessage content type to your portal_types tool
    
      6. Create a Method (Python Script/DTML Method/Product Method)
         to deal with incoming emails. Alternatively just leave the default
         mail handling script.
    
      7. Modify the CMFMailIn Tools method property to point to your newly
         created method. (If applicable)
    
      6. Configure your Message Transport Agent (MTA) to pipe messages
         from a specific email (i.e. *andyd@nipltd.com* ) to the 
         sendMailToZope.py script
    
      7. Restart your MTA and send a message to the configured email address
         (i.e. *andyd@nipltd.com* ).
