Can't remember name of old email app

About three[?] years ago I used a FW (possibly SW) email client that
allowed you to do many things. One of the neat things was that you
could set it up to run certain apps if an email was received that had
certain subject lines ie: "Subject: Do task 5" would possibly start the
defragmenter or shutdown windows- whatever you scripted "Do task 5" to do.

Does anyone remember the name of the app???

TIA

This may not be the one you are looking for, but Courier (former
Calypso) can do it.

===============================================

Interesting premise .. but, sounds like a wide-open door for malicious
uses. I'd hate to get an email specifying DELTREE /Y C:\
