How does the email get stored respectively how are you supposed to get access to the email?
Personally, I like IMAP servers for storing and accessing email, as Perl has quite good IMAP support. But as you are talking about "Outlook" (which is a client side program), maybe you mean that the data is stored in a Microsoft Exchange Server?
If the data is in fact stored in Microsoft Exchange, the first approach I would take would be to see how Exchange can be accessed through IMAP (see above). If that fails, you can always look at how to automate Outlook (through Win32::OLE) or, better, to use MAPI or Simple MAPI for accessing the Microsoft Exchange Server.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
