Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/laurivosandi/certidude/issues/13

Certidude server could be set up so it would fetch certidude@hostname mailbox content automatically. Preliminary implementation could avoid IMAP altogether and simply parse /var/mail contents directly. Sending mail could be implemented with smtplib

E-mails which have CSR as an attachment, could directly be converted and moved to /var/lib/certidude/ca.example.com/requests, the source e-mail address could be injected into the CSR so when the certificate is issued, the response is automatically sent to the same user. Whenever a certificate gets signed a copy of e-mail should be sent to the root user of the Certidude server machine. The sender of all the e-mails should appear as certidude@ca.example.com or whatever is inserted into the CA certificate e-mail field.
