This software automatically extracts and saves incoming email attachments to disk, while replacing them with a link or text description. It can also unpack archived attachments and pack them in outgoing emails.

One of the most impressive features of Attachment Processor is its ability to automatically extract attachments from incoming messages and save them to the hard disk. This is incredibly useful for keeping track of important files and ensuring they are accessible at all times. Extracted attachments are replaced in the incoming message with a link to the file on the disk or a text file with an attachment description and a link to it.
Another impressive feature is the program's ability to automatically pack attachments by ZIP in outgoing messages, which can save a lot of time and effort. Additionally, users can create password-protected archives, pack incoming attachments by ZIP (all or specific types only) and automatically unzip incoming attachments.
Attachment Processor comes with two modes: Simple and Advanced. In the Advanced mode, users can set up individual rules for processing attachments in different messages and folders. The program also offers different schemes for naming folders and renaming attachments. There are seven basic schemes for both categories, and users can create their own with the help of the elementary macro-language supported by the software.
Attachment Processor also has an efficient utility for updating links in Microsoft Outlook's message base. This is particularly useful when the folder with attachments is moved to another location (folder or disk). Finally, the program includes a utility for managing the list of attachment types blocked by the Outlook security system (only for Internet Mail). Attachments blocked by this system can be saved to the hard drive, where they are easily accessible.
Overall, I would highly recommend Attachment Processor to anyone looking for a powerful and versatile software solution for managing attachments in their Outlook messages. The program is available in both manual and automatic modes, making it easy to use for both novice and experienced computer users.
