automatic convert to .eml

Open ArtZL opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Is there a way to have it automatically convert all incoming email into separate .eml files (without human intervention)?

Or... Is there a way to convert to .eml files via a .bat file?

    Thank you...    Art Lieberman

@ArtZL IETNG does not have any automatic functions like this. The addon FiltaQuila might be able to trigger an eml export, but you would have to check with the developer. https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/filtaquilla/?src=ss

What exactly are you trying to do, maybe if I understand better I might have more ideas. @cleidigh

Hi, Christopher.

Here’s my situation... When an online store sells my product, I am sent an email. When the email is received, actions have to be taken on my end. I want this to happen automatically. So, I have a program that checks my email every 15 minutes, and if it finds a sales email, it sends information to the buyer. It works fine under Windows Live email. But I am moving to a new computer that has Outlook email, where all emails are in one big file. I am hoping to run an additional email package just for this one email account. (Outlook will handle all of my other email accounts.)

I’m using POP3 and SMTP

(I’m also wondering if Live email can co-exist nicely on a computer that has Outlook email.

@ArtZL It sounds like FiltaQuila may very well do what You need. It allows you to do actions on incoming emails including running programs and I think Javascript. I suggest doing a post in its repository. Axel Grude is the developer. https://github.com/RealRaven2000/quickfilters/issues @cleidigh

Thank you, Christopher. I will look into it. Your descriptions sounds quite promissing.
