This can be done in any number of ways most of which are platform specific,
eg with a system using sendmail one could just set up an alias for a
specific user name (I guess this is the way that support@demon.net works),
which pipes the mail into a "MailServer" program, which would then process
the commands.

I suggest you ask in demon.ip.support.turnpike where you are more likely
to find some specific expertise.
