Hi there,
I am a newbie here and would like to check if Robotask
can do this:

1.Check the mails in Outlook from Paypal
2.Check the correct paid price and then search for a
specific number in the Paypal mail and copy it
3.Go to my small VB programm, paste the number and copy
the given text
4.Go to Outlook and forward the mail to the buyer
(address given in Paypal mail) with the normal text (as
an exaple from Word) and specific text (paste) from my
tool
5.Mails should be checked every minute

Thanks guys for your answer.
Regards!
Gordon

RoboTask can't get direct access to Outlook messages. But it can receive messages from POP3 server, parse it and save as .EML files. See actions in group "eMail".
BTW: RoboTask have the internal basic engine. You can download and install it

Also RoboTask can parse email from saved .EML files. You should only drag necessary messages from outlook and drop them into some folder. Next you can process these messages in the file loop.

Hi Oleg,
thanks for information.
Can you help me here in detail how can I do this?

How can I parse the mail? Is here basic needed? Can you
help me here to solve the problem?

At the moment I have a trial version, but I would like to
buy a business version if I am sure that it will work.

Do you have some examples of equal projects, e.g. how to
work with the loops?
Regards!
Gordon

There is "Parse email" action. Look at EMail group.

Maybe you need BASIC in order to parse message body.
