Download Attachements from EML File (Outlook VBO Read from EML freezing)

[tim.dauti]

Hello All,

The process I am working on needs to download attachments from EML files.

Those Files are retrieved from an Application using API calls.

I tried the MS Outlook VBO with the action "Read from EML" which is supposed to be read the mail and also download the attachements. But unfortunatelly it freezes and moves does not even through an error.

If I double click manually the EML file it opens in Outlook and is possible to download the attachements.

If I convert the EML File in to MSG and try normal action get attachments it brings error "File is open or you have no access"

Have you ever faced such a case?

Thank you 

Tim

Hi @GeoffHirst ,

Thank you for the video.

For sure it has to deal with the source wich makes things a bit harder.

I created a python code which helps on this particular case.

Thank you
