save (or delete) attachments from any specified folders and to create

thanx! it works fine...
but is there a way to automatically check all mails in a folder and it
subfolders?? because now it only works with the selected mail....

and is there a way to automatically run (rule?) that code so no
userinteraction is necessary??
the perfect solution would be if for example i write a new mail with an
attachment that (after sending) only the message with the link to the
attachment gets stored in the "send items"-folder!

do you have any ideas???

thanx for everything!

The newsgroup interface at Developersdex (http://www.developersdex.com) does not automatically quote the text of the original message when you post a reply. Please take the time to quote the original message manually so that people reading your current response can understand what you're talking about. Otherwise, you may not receive the answer you're looking for.

Each folder has an Items collection that contains all items in a folder and a Folders collection with all subfolders, each subfolder, of course, having its own Items collection.

You can use the MAPIFolder.Items.ItemAdd event to monitor the Sent Items folder for new items and modify them however you wish.
