Default Saving Outlook Email As Text File Extract

Hello Outlook Group:

I'm normally an Access and Excel VBA programmer, but my client wants me to
scrape the text from a select email address and insert it into an Access memo
column.

Does anyone know how to configure Outlook (VBA approach would be fine) so
that when an email is received in a selected account, the message would also
be extracted to a directory as a text file and then the Outlook message would
be moved to some history folder.

Once the text file exists in a predefined folder , I will just have Access
periodically check the folder for files, grab the text, insert it into the
column, and delete the text file).

Ideas?

Thanks,
