Publisher's description

From TechMonster :

Detacher is a useful tool to help you reduce your mailbox size. You can improve your Outlook synchronization performance. Allows you to remove hundreds of e-mail attachments with just a couple of mouse clicks. When attachments are removed, you original email will contain a clickable link to where your attachments are. Attachments are placed in the mailbox hierarchy (inbox->folder1->yourfolder) on your local or network hard drives. Attachments will have timestamp that corresponds to the Received date/time of the email which it came from. New Email's attachment may be saved & removed optionally as they arrive! Processing can be filtered by attachment size. Processed e-mail will continue to have the Attachment icon. Free for personal, non-commerical use.

Summary: It did manage to create a folder and drop a couple of attached files, but only on the first attempt. After that, nothing but errors. Can't even terminate the script gracefully, have to kill the process with an ALT-F4 after killing Outlook. Yes, I wa... read more >>
