Overview of the different parsing methods

Email Parser offers different methods to capture the needed piece of text from the email. Depending on your skills or the complexity of the email you will use one or another. You can even combine them for the most complex cases.

Regular expression match	Some RegExp skills are required.	Yes. Everything can be parsed with regular expressions.
Capture HTML tag	Some HTML knowledge is required.	Only for parsing the HTML version of the email (the field named BodyHTML), not the plain text one.
