I agree there is a security risk if the server executed random commands
received via email, but Hylton's message said that the incoming message
would contain URLs, not commands.
As long as the lines from the email are scanned to remove quotes and then
quoted on the wget command line, I don't see that there would be any notable
security risk. Am I missing something?
