I've special e-mail accounts on my web server (@mydomain.com). I want to run a php script automatically when one of these accounts get a new e-mail. For example: when info@mydomain.com address receives a mail, I want to run "receivedMail.php" file and read this new e-mail. I don't know where I will start or how can I do this. I have cpanel and I can buy a new software if I need or can I make this with php?

You need to tell cpanel to call your PHP script whenever it receives email on that account. This link may help: http://www.phpshare.org/articles/Piping-Incoming-Mail-with-PHP
