Email Address Grabbing?

We have a client looking to automatically extract the email addresses from a
pile of old form-to-email information requests through his site. The
difficulty being that the email addresses are held in the body of each
email, not as the sender.

He used Outlook Express and would like some software to rip out these email
addresses to get in touch with the users of his form with an offer of an
email newsletter.

Before the anti-Spam police jump on me, a provision was made in the original
forms that use of the form gave us permission to contact them with special
offers etc... and the majority are existing/old customers.

Does anyone know of a simple way,shareware style, to extract these
addresses? Or, does anyone know of a way of getting the whole text of a
folder in Outlook Express converted to a text file or database that I cun
run a script against to pull out anything that looks like an email
address?...

Does VBA work with OutlookExpress?... maybe thats a route?.
