Project only open to Australian Citizens with an ABN. I need a locally-hosted application that is capable of monitoring several dedicated Outlook inboxes, recognises action requests in new emails through a set of predefined templates, and then pushes the parsed data into matching fields in an external system. Core Flow 1. Outlook receives an email → the program checks it against my templates (subject line, body markers, or both). 2. When a template match is found, key values are extracted (e.g. request ID, dates, status, comments). 3. The program connects to the database, locates the relevant record or creates a new one, and writes each value into the correct label/column. Requirements • Must run on Windows Server as a service or scheduled task; no cloud components. • Compatible with current Microsoft 365 desktop Outlook (MAPI or Graph API via local auth is fine). • Template set should be editable by me without recompiling—JSON, XML or an easy UI works. • Clear logging: matched template name, data captured, DB action performed, success/error. • Source code delivered so I can extend it later. Acceptance I will sign off when I can: - Add a new template, send a test email, and see the fields populated correctly in the database. - Review logs showing each processing step with no unhandled errors. - Client portfolio to be provided by engaged party to assist with the selection process. - Opportunity for ongoing projects for the suitable candidate.

I hold an Australian Passport as well as an ABN. If I understand you correctly, I would need to implement the following: 1. Two Windows based applications would be required. 2. First application would be a windows desktop application that would have the configuration module setup for a system administrator. Using this one, you can setup: a. Generic attributes that templates can hold e.g. subject line, list of markers in message body, from, to, etc. b. Templates and assign their unique sets of attributes; each attribute can be defined to be matched partially or fully and/or case-sensitive/insensitive. c. Email addresses to be monitored including the full server and connection details (including MAPI details). d. Connection to DB, which would store the information of matched records. e. System-wide parameters e.g. a time-interval if the parser is setup as a scheduled task, etc. 3. The second application would be the back-end parser. I would suggest a simple C# executable that can run as a back-end tool at fixed intervals of time, using preferable Windows Task Scheduler. The parser will loop through the configured outlook Inboxes one by one, using the configured server (and possible MAPI) details and would match each new message against all configured templates. Whenever a match is found, the data is inserted into the configured db and a log will be created. Question: What if a message matches more than one templates?
