Do all email programs have the ability to export to text the body of the
email? If so, this could be a solution that would work in most cases.
If I understand you, in reality it would be very difficult to do this
any other way.

Some; Eudora or other similar clients that save in a well-documented
format. Outlook, no. Different versions of Outlook, even worse.
I am presently writing for me, however I have no idea what or where the
user would store such files.
First, solve the problem at hand; scratch the itch. Solving the general
problem means you'll never be done.
As for file storage, Thunderbird once again has a well-documented standard:

I'm not trying to download the email from inside fox, rather I am just
trying to read the contents of the inbox, looking for a certain subject
email to process.
You might be a happier camper if you created a filter in Thunderbird that
parses the email and launches an EXE when needed. I believe there are some
add-ons that will do that.
