If I need to auto answer for some e-mail messages
sent to particular address and if this answer should be some
action according to subject filed. An example of action:
send a file, send an e-mail. What to do better?
Thank you in advance for your help.

You can do this with the procmail/formail combo.

Many people in this group recommend procmail, I use the filter program
which comes with Elm. Whichever you prefer, a mail filter is what you
need.
