SMS - Sort and group by message content (regex)

[ancienthistory]

I've been looking for a solution to sort and group a series of text messages by regex in to one single message. The company I work for sends out text messages for your next day work time-in. These are sent from email to your phones sms email address (i.e. <phonenumber>@txt.att.net in which you receive the message in your sms app. The problem with this is that the new message is ALWAYS seemingly assigned a random 10 digit number as the contact number. I like to save these messages just in case there is ever a screw up on their side down the road. The downside is, 5-6 days a week is 5-6 seperate messages. The only commonality is the format of the message. It is an obvious template that could be easily regexed and possible grouped together.

Does anyone know of any app that can do this automatically?

Not exactly what you are looking for, but I would give this a try to see if it works:

Create a dummy contact, add several of these random phone numbers to this contact.
Open your SMS messages and see if any of them are now grouped into a single conversation.

SMS to Text might help if you use Notepad++ for Android to search the text file. Or copy the entire text, then use ClipBoard Text Processor Regex.
