Guide Review - Advanced Email Parser 1.27 - Email Utility

There is a lot of information in emails. Getting that information out of the messages and ready for further use can be painfully time-consuming and error-prone, however.

Advanced Email Parser (AEP) can do that for you. It fetches messages, parses them and enters the information it extracts into a database or sends it to an external program. And AEP is so versatile that it can do much more than that. It can automatically answer inquiries, sort and redirect mail, create mailing lists, back up important mail, extract info for FAQs, and almost everything else you'd do with email.

While constructing complex rules is naturally a tad more difficult than processing a Web form, AEP has powerful debugging mechanisms to assist you. A real time saver.
