I have to make a mail-trigger wich should parse the email, when it comes but I have no idea where to start from. Would you give me any ideas, or somewhere to read from?

Look for Mail & POP3 modules on CPAN (
What do you mean by a mail trigger?

Spend an hour a week on CPAN, helps cure all known programming ailments ;-)
 
maybe procmail is what you are looking for?
it all depends on the purpose of your script, your posting was not that informative ;)

I have a mailbox where I should wait for a mail in a given format. For example:

Name: Alex
Mail: alex@alex.ale
Sex: m
.
.
and so on.

When such mail comes I should call a script wich should parse this email and put the information into a database.
10x for the modules I'll look at them.
