    I had a user ask me a question about e-mail enabling a Document Library. They would like to send e-mail to the library and have certain meta data required before it is made available. Is this possible?

    You can intercept an inbound email and handle it differently with a custom email event receiver. The class is here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.spemaileventreceiver.aspx

    You can then register the email receiver on the specific document library as any other event receiver. Here is a good sample:
