 * We have a nice WP site and now we want to add some simple PHP functionality which
   actually has little or nothing to do with WP. I want to send commands to a third
   party mail program using their API, but we want to have this functionality inside
   of WP so that our entire site is in one package for our admin users.
 * I have the PHP I need ready, but I need to determine how to turn that into a 
   WP page. One suggestion was a page like a plugin options page. All I really need
   is to be able to make a form and submit it and process etc.
 * Can someone show me a simple sample plugin that I could use as a model? I think
   that would be enough to get me started.
 * Thank you.

 * There are plugins which can execute PHP code. For example PHP-Exec. Just search
   for PHP in the plugins search form.

 * Thank you but we are looking to create a plugin which could be reusable. I looked
   at that one but that’s not the direction I would like to take.
 * Is there another example of a simple plugin that is along the lines of what I
   need to achieve?
