pulling data from email

I think I asked this before but only to get a link to a site that was tough
to find what I needed.

Does anyone know how to pull data from an email to place into a database
realtime? I will be using php/mysql of course.

An example of data would be:

Contact Information

Name:
Jay Bird

Customer Type:
Selling

Email Address:
jaybird@hotmail.com

Home Phone:
512-555-1212

Other Phone:
512-555-2424



Thanks...
