How to copy all one email from Outlook?

Our website allows visitors to use their own email client to submit sales questions to our sales staff. For various reasons, we do not want to switch to the contact form. Before these emails would come to life and I would just send them to various sales representatives here in our office.

My ultimate goal is to figure out a way to get email into a custom database. Either by copying the email or pasting the content into a web page, which then parses and pulls out the sender, subject, and body. Or you can redirect email to an application running on our exchange server that does this.

I think the first option is more in my area of ​​expertise, my problem is that I can't for the life of me figure out an easy way to copy all the content (headers containing the senders email address, etc.) of an email from Outlook so I can paste it into the webform for parsing. I was hoping someone could point me to an Outlook addon that can do this.

Best wishes Ryan

What you can do is create an email account to be used by some special application. Your app will periodically connect to the server, download email, and then do whatever processing it downloads.



No perspective is required at all.

To copy the complete headers, follow the instructions here . However, I agree that this is not necessarily an efficient workflow. You should consider Konrad's proposal.
