Paid on delivery
I need software that will connect to an email server and scrape text/email addresses from the attachments, email body, subject line and sender. The attachments will be either word documents or PDFs. The software should be very versatile and robust with ability to configure rules to capture text from any part of the email using before and after text tags and/or if something looks like an email address. Data should be output with 1 row of data per email scraped (csv, or SQL). Currently similar software is written in java and not working as it is supposed to do. It was designed to get bounce emails from server and get email address embedded in bounce attachment, but I see a bigger and better use for the software. Freelancer will either modify current java source code or develop new software to complete the tasks above. Software must run on windows at very least. Freelancer will provide complete source code of the project upon completion. If freelance does a great job then they will be asked to complete the project which will include connecting to a MySQL db, adding trial and paid options and and licensing system.

Hello, I'd be happy to assist you with this. Within 10 days I will deliver a new application developed using .net 4.5 that will connect up to the configured e-mail server using POP3, process all messages arrived after the last known message and extract any e-mail addresses from it. It will automatically parse the subject, message body, and any text, word or pdf attachments and identify any text that looks like an e-mail address then validate the domain to see if it indeed may be a valid e-mail address. It will not require or support before and after rules - I don't fully understand why that would be needed in case the purpose is to harvest anything that looks like it may be a valid e-mail and then filter out the garbage. That can be done without needing rules I think. The software may require Word to be installed however I will try to remove that limitation. I'll deliver a robust and error-free application ready to be tested and put to use and be available for future enhancements as you may require. With any questions please get in touch via the freelancer chat and I'll happily go through the logic with you. Other than that the requirement seems straightforward so if you're happy with the above I'm ready to get started once the project is awarded and the milestone is escrowed. Due to how freelancer works for freelancers I will only accept an awarded project if the milestone is also escrowed at the same time. regards, Janos

I also have a C# console application that works similarly which I can extend to fit your requirement for pdf and word document, so there would be no need for the Java source. I look forward to further discussion with you on this.

Hello! I am a professional programmer with over 7 years of experience using Python. I have read your project description, and I am certain that I can create the program for processing emails as you have described. To do so, I will use the libraries Mechanize (for web automation tools), BeautifulSoup (for parsing html), and Selenium (for working with AJAX or Javascript, if necessary). I have written very similar programs in the past, and I would be happy to show examples. Please contact me so we may speak further and so I can send files. Thank you for your consideration.
