hello,

I would like to find a solution for letter creation automation. The idea is I send an email to my server mac / or put a text document in a special dropbox folder, so that this email or text is processed to put its text content automatically into the body of a letter with my letterhead etc.

like this:

email to server watching address
subject: create business letter
body:
[from] me [/from] -> puts my name in the placeholder
[to] adress here [/to] -> fills out the address
[body] ...
[signature] -> puts my signature file (or already on the template)

then this letter could be sent directly back to me by mail, or to a printer or to a fax...

how could I do this? I have indesign, filemaker, word etc...

your help is very appreciated...
