Hi @TUSHAR_DIWASE

Item.Body -> it will get the body content

@TUSHAR_DIWASE
In Get Outlook Messages activity then output should be list

Take for each loop configure type argument as
System.net.mail.mailmessage

Then item.body.tostring

Which you can get body of email

Hope this helps

You can try like this

• Get Outlook Message store in a variable “MailMessages”
• For Each item in MailMessage and set the for each argument as MailMessage
  
  
  • Use message box and item.body will get you the body of the email

Hi @TUSHAR_DIWASE

To get only the mail subject contains Mail Delivery Failure is it correct

In the Get Outlook Mail activity

Properties

Filter = "[Subject] = 'Mail Delivery Failure'"

Output -> Store it as “MailMessages”

For each loop configure type argument as

System.net.mail.mailmessage

Then item.body.tostring

HI @TUSHAR_DIWASE

Can try like this

Read a .msg file and save attachement

This simple vbs should work fine, you could even pass the arguments in the Start Process activity. Dim OlApp Dim Eml Dim Arg Set Arg = WScript.Arguments Dim File File = Arg(0) Set OlApp = CreateObject(“Outlook.Application”) Set Eml = OlApp.CreateItemFromTemplate(File) Download(Eml) Sub Download(objEml) For Each Attch In objEml.Attachments Attch.SaveAsFile "C:\temp\" & Attch.FileName Next End Sub [image]

I am not familiar with vb.
Approach i am using is , saving attachment as email in local folder(test.msg).
using start process , i am opening mail and then get text to read content.
But output of get text is empty.

Any other approach is also appreciated
