Details

If the current page is an Outlook Message, the attachments within the message are saved as separate files.

Each attachment or embedded image within the email is removed from the email and placed on disk. A new page entry is created for each attachment that can be processed by subsequent rules. The original file name from which the page was extracted will be stored in the ParentImage variable, for possible future reference within your application.
