Parsing/Reading the mail from the server which is in html format

I have an application where i want the users to send me mail which is in predefined html format. i want to parse the mail at the receivers end . i am using java mail.Like i have a fixed format
ie name, age sex are the parameters for which i want to find the value
Pls help me out here.

I would append <?xml version="1.0"?> to the top of the html feed and then run it thru a XML parser. Then you can just look for the Tags you want. I do not know if they have a HTML parser I could be wrong.

Thanks for that input.
U mean to say that, make it an xml file and then
use a suitable parser to parse it and read the
values. Can u throw some more light on to it.
like what will be the ideal parser and if possible send me an example of the same
