A couple of ways.
1. Use the imap (it does pop3 too) extension to connect to the mail
server, parse the mails and extract the zip files.
2. Use mime decoding php scripts. There's one I've just committed to
PEAR, which you can get by going to cvs.php.net --> php4 --> pear -->
mail --> mimeDecode.php. It's beta quality at the moment, but should get
better. Also, this is just a class/object, so it will require
incorporating into your own scripts.

If you're on unix, exec('unzip ...'). Or if windows, you can use the cmd
line version of winzip.
