I think I mentioned it before, but Wolfram has a set of scripts that
does this really well.  I don't know if they are published anywhere, but
that would be a good place to start with.  I think Sara Sharp also had a

next time you see her in the office.

Really?  Why?  Once you learn the workflow, what keeps changing that
breaks things?  External stuff (like corporate email servers), or things
in our workflow/tools?
