I am assisting a nonprofit organization that will be accepting applications to their program sort out their email issues.

They receive hundreds of applications based from people based on geography. The folks who review these applications do so based on that geography. So an applicant from NY would be reviewed by ABC. An applicant from LA would be reviewed by DEF.

The applications are in either PDF or Word. Is it possible to parse the PDF (fill-in) or Word document, search for a specific check box on the application, and then filter the email to a given folder based on the geography????

So if a person submits an applciation and checks of Boston, I want it to go into a folder for Boston apps. So all the reviewer needs to do is go to Boston apps and not go through all apps to see which ones are for Boston.

Thanks.
 
That would be really difficult.
Best and easy thing would be to ask them to add the location in the subject of the email and then you can filter based on the subject.
