Email attachments - Saving to Server

[eellis]

We are looking for a scripting tool or Third Party Software tool that will automatically locate an attachment within a specific users inbox and copy this attachment to a server location without signing onto the users inbox. This attachment arrives on a daily bases.

Using the rules wizard you could have a server side rule but I can't see a way to save the attachment. But that would do the trick.

In not sure of the exact functionality of what you want but you might want to look at a package called MIME sweeper at

http://www.mimesweeper.com/

It can grab mails before they even hit the Inbox and you can set up rules about what to do with them.

I've never used the package personally so I can't speak to it's cost or installation process, but I have heard good things about it.

Take a look at the 3rd party tool, Mail Attender -from Sherpa Software. I believe their tool does what you are looking for and you can get a trial from their website.

We are now investigating theses two 3rd party software vendors. Using the rule wizard to save an attachment to the server is now being tested.

We use Archive Server 6.61 to perform brick level backups to tape. Has anyone uses the brick level method to save an inbox to a server location ???!!!

Not with archive server, but with Backup Exec you can redirect an inbox restore to another mailbox.
