Text message to email script

OrbitHeadache

Hi,

So work send text messages to everyone offering extra shifts and usually have to reply within seconds to secure such shifts by emailing them what dates you can do.

These text messages come a random times and is on a first come first served basis.

My question is, is it possible to run a script on my mobile so if i receive a text message offering extra shifts on a specific date an email is automatically sent from me that i can do it?

So for example;

If text message from number xxxxxx contains dates xxxx send email using template to xxxxx@xxxx.com.

Is this even possible? It will certainly give me an edge over everyone because i will not have to continually monitor the text messages because the process will be automatic.
