If you're hosting the board on a dedicated server, there shurely is Procmail and Crond.

But only a minority of users have this setup.
As I said most users have a simple Webhosting solution with Webspace, PHP, MySQL and - if it is one of the better ISPs - the possibility to access the account interactively via SSH and run a few cron jobs once a day.

No chance to run daemons, no scripts running more than a few seconds, no /etc/aliases access, no local MBox piped through Procmail, no unrestriced crontabs, no ...

You have to take this into account if you aim your software at a wide range of people.

I know, best solution ist to set up an email alias in /etc/aliases and pipe the mail directly through a (maybe procmail) script, but that's not the point.
