Hello everyone. I have a VBA script cobbled together that will successfully capture an email attachment from a specific sender with a specific subject. My problem is that it will only capture 1 instance.I would like to be able to add additional Senders and Subjects to capture - and be able to specifiy the path to save the attachment in to (likely a different drive and folder).I am not a VBA user at all, so I would appreciate any assistence offered.
