Save email action

Use the Save email action in the Email package to save an email message as an EML file to a folder. Use this action within a Loop action.

Settings

Note:
  • When the Save email action is used in a Loop and if the subject line contains the following supported characters, the special character is replaced with under-score ( _ ) in the filename created to save the email.
    • Slash, forward or backward (( / \ )
    • Angle bracket, left or right ( < > )
    • Colon ( : )
    • Asterisk ( * )
    • Braces left or right ( { } )
    • Percent ( % )
    • Quote ( " )
    • Single quote ( ' )
    • Question mark ( ? )
    • Pipe ( | )
    • TAB (\t)
  • You must use the Save email action within a loop. Use the For each mail in mail box iterator to repeat a set of actions on all the emails within the specific parameters. See the following links:
  • In the Session name field, enter the name of the session that you used to connect to the email server in the Connect action.
  • In the Save emails to folder field, specify the location to save the email.
    Note: This field is not case-sensitive.
  • Overwrite file(s): select this option to overwrite the existing file with the same name. If this option is not selected, the email message is saved with the same filename suffixed with a numeric value; it does not overwrite the existing file.
Note: Microsoft Outlook supports this action.
