I want to take this code, that works great, and runs great on the Ethernet Shield.  Make it so it will run on the WiFi Shield.  Then I can go cordless with it.  What are the key things I need to change one the program?  If I know it all I would not be asking people on here.  So any cool input, would help out.

  This sketch requests a URL when a mailbox has been opened.

What do if have to change in the code?

You probably need to start with the IP addresses.
