Arclab® Inbox2DB

Save Email File Attachments to Disc

With Inbox2DB you can process file attachments from incoming emails easily and fully automatically. Each individual email can contain up to 30 file attachments. The program saves the file attachments in the directory you have selected. A separate folder in the selected target directory is created for each incoming email message in which the file attachments are saved. This is necessary so that no overlaps or conflicts can occur during the fully automatic processing of the email messages.

If a file attachment is saved, the complete file path is entered into the database or Excel table at the same time, so that you have access to the individual files at any time. This allows the program to process a large volume of emails without the need for user intervention.

You can save up to 30 file attachments per email. Duplicate file names are also not a problem since the number of the attachment is appended to the file name.
Furthermore, it is possible to save the file attachments directly into a binary field of a  database instead of saving them to disc.

Insert the Local Storage Path into a Database Field

So that the saved file attachments can be processed further, the full local storage path is entered in a database or MS Excel file for each individual file attachment. In addition to the full file path, additional information such as the original file name, content-type and file size is available for each attachment.

check  Insert the storage path into a text field. (This also activates the storage of the attachment on disc.)

check  Insert the original attachment filename into a text field.

check  Insert the attachment size in bytes into an integer/long or text field.

check  Insert the content-type of the attachment in a text field.
