How to parse email body containg < meta > tag
I have created a email listener which will read an inbox email. It will parse the body content and will create the workitems.
when I set the the email type to be plain/text I am able to parse the body with parse delimited rule and create workitem.
but
when I use the type text/html the .pyInboundEmail.pybody has html in it in the form of
<html>
<head>
<meta>
</head>
<body>
key1="value1"
key2="value2"
key3="value3"
key4="value4"
</body>
</html>
so, the parse delimited rule obviously fails
the thing is when I am trying to use the parse xml rule , it is showing <meta> tag not closed properly,
could you suggest how can I handle that,
if you need anything from my side do let me know, apologies for any typo mistakes...
thanks in advance

A simple way to get around this would be to use a regular expression to remove "meta" tags from the content before parsing with your XML rule.
