Background
Currently have a console app that gets email from 0365 outlook account, I am using the outlook api 2.0
Problem
I am accessing the email's body using the api, however the body comes in as a html string. I am using my go to regex functionality which removes the html tags, however outlook adds a css class to to their Html which is basically making my regex expression obsolete.
Code
string body = "<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<meta content="text/html; charset=us-ascii">
<meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 15 (filtered medium)">
<style>

Objective
I will need to able strip html tags from the string, and also remove the css classes which outlook places in to the body.
