PHP + email



Is it possible to have a PHP script receive an email (CSV text). The problem is this, I want a server to send me an email, and then I want to be able to have a PHP script 'listening' for email and then processing the data in the email.

Is it possible to have a PHP script 'listening' or responding to an 'email received' event, so that it can process the data ?

TIA

.
