	I would like to correspond with people who have used mail to
automatically do something, such as return files from an archive or
whatever.  I am interested in using mail to allow individuals to run
time consuming database search programs on a machine which can do the
searches very rapidly.  I envision that people would send a message
of the form
DATA
....
....
PROGRAM

and PROGRAM would be applied to DATA at a convenient time, and the
results returned to the sender.

	Please mail replies to me, and I will post a summary.
