Hello,

I want to create a database that will do following tasks:

[LIST]
Import emails
Append in temp table with dump ID (dump ID contains folder where the mail was stored in)
Scan the subject of the mail (find customer & ticket ID)
Scan the body of the email looking for keywords : DOES NOT WORK !
Assign the other items to REJECTED (by doing update query)
Assign the record to a user dependent of the user qualifications (language, type of question;; )
Track the response date (service level)
Automate all mails OUT using word merge automatically


Reporting :

Overdue email to assigned agent
Dashboard with total in and total out (easy)


I will start creating the database structure now and think really good about the exact flow this must follow.

But the question I have at this moment is :

Is it feasable using Access creating an emailtreatment system?
How automate the mailmerge in Access & Word ?
What to do with the massive amount of KB's of the Body of the email?
Are there a few samples that have similar functionalities ?

Thank you all for your reactions..
