Moodle forum as an email based forum

I got this note from a group I am helping set up a Moodle installation:

> Hi Randall - Thanks for the pointers. We already had the cron service running and that's all working fine. What we're looking for is to have clients send messages to an email address and have those messages populate the discussion boards.
>I'm not seeing any type of config for retrieving mail from a POP3 account or any scripts that I can configure our MTA to pipe messages into.

That is, they want a forum more like the standard kind in which the user simply replies in order to have their responses placed back on the forum. Is this possible in Moodle?
