 * I’m just wondering if it’s possible to map the email headers such as the senders
   name and email address into custom fields?

 * There isn’t a built-in way, but you can do that by writing a “postie_post” filter.

 * Thanks Wayne,
    Do you know if there are any examples that do something like this?
   Cheers, Kim
