Find features ea users use by looking through email lists #37

An emailing list Jim belongs to receives emails when a user signs up for a new feature. Jim to send out example email. Look at using regular expressions to match the feature the user uses, emails supposedly formatted predictably with feature listed at start of email.

Goal: Create an email "crawler" that will look through emails to find the feature and the company associated with it. Once the feature and company name is found, those attributes in the JSON file will be overwritten with the new information.

Not a priority anymore, due to the time constraint and the lack of people who I can contact about starting this.
