I guess `VB' means `Visual Basic'? If it is, you are probably working on 
a Windows computer. AFAIK, procmail only exists on UNIX systems. 
Therefore, most of the things suggested on this list won't help you.

If you want to implement an autoresponder/mail processer on your system, 
I think the best you can do is install Pegasus Mail. Pegasus has the 
ability to process incoming mail. I haven't used Pegasus' filtering very 
much (I started reading my mail on the university's UNIX system), but I 
think you can call programs based on the contents of incoming mail.

There is a discussion list on Pegasus, you should check the docs that 
come with it.

For more information, look at: http://www.cuslm.ca/pegasus/
(Just checked: the site is being rewritten at the moment, no sign of when 
it is coming back online.)

Anyway: good luck.
