Good day all,

I am a little unsure how to word this so I apologize in advance if it comes out a little confusing. I have a question and if the answer to this is no then I think proceeding with this will be very tough.

Question: Can a program/script/macro be actively running on a computer with MS Outlook open and trigger upon receipt of an email from a target email address?

Programming: Basically, here are the steps I want to go through if the above question can be answered with a yes:

1. email trigger received
2. open all unopened items currently in "Inbox"
3. parse through all unopened email items and concatenate them in a word/text/rtf document.
4. create reply email to the trigger
5. attach newly created document to this email
6. send email

It seems pretty basic, but seeing as how I am newly graduated and trying to think of some projects for myself to learn with I am having a bit of a hard time wrapping my mind around this.

Again, I apologize if this has been poorly presented. I appreciate anyones suggestions, comments and criticism of the idea.

Thanks,

Trent
