Does it work the Save Attachments function with Outlook?
If it doesn’t work, which is the best way to download the Attachments of an Outlook mail in a specific path?

Yes, Save Attachments function works with Outlook.

note: path is a string variable containing the address.

Hi @johnine,

So yo need to convert you Item variable in System.Net.Mail.MailMessage ,in the property of the for each activity.

When using For each, don’t forget to check if the receiving variable is matching le types in your list.

Hope it’s helps.

Regards.

Peter

@johnnie,

You need to pass the type of argument as system.net.mail.mailmessage

Hi,

Try putting as condition:
eDRMail.Any()
This will check if the List<MailMessage> actually contains any elements, as it returns an initialized list already, so it’s never null.

Hi,

I’ve saved all the attachments of one email in an “ICollection(Ienumerable)” and after processing these attachments i’d like to clear the collection in order to work with another email that could have less or no attachments.

Could anyone tell me how to empty this collection?

Thank you in advance!

Regards,

Andres

Hi;
Clear collection activity should do, If you do not have it on the activity panel, try to instal Microsft.Activity.Extension package
