Version: Outlook Attachment Sniffer 4.1
Pros: Gives a variety of options to save messages and attachments
Cons: It will be nice if the attachment can be replaced with link to the file (in the body of the message) not with another attachment.

Version: Outlook Attachment Sniffer 4.1
"Great product, would like to see a few enhancements"
Pros: This is a terrific application for anyone who wants to automatically save emails to a specific Windows folder based on info in the subject line. I use it to scan incoming emails for specific words and then save a copy, complete with attachments, to a subject file corresponding to the filter subject.
The application works very reliably and is pretty fast. It filters all incoming Outlook mail looking for the specified matches. You can have multiple filters and it will compare the incoming subject line to each filter until it either finds a match or exhausts the list. The message then is received by Outook.
Cons: My comments are more along the line of a wish list of enhancements rather than real cons. There are several things that could make the program easier to set up for users who are doing detailed filtering and saving copies of emails to many separate folders. It would be helpful to be able to assign default settings to the various fields that must be completed when setting up a filter. It also would be helpful to have a dropdown menu for choosing the destination file folder where you want to save matches. As it is now, you have to enter the path either manually or by cut and paste. The last thing is that it would be nice to have the option of filtering the entire email (subject line and body) for matches instead of just the subject line. This would slow performance but sometimes, at least in may case, the information that I need to look at does not appear in the subject line.
My last concern is that I have not been able to get the author to respond to any emails. But, the program still works beautifully and is unique as far as I can tell.

"no longer able to send emails with figures in the body"
Pros: I am not able to send emails after installing the product. So, not sure if there is anything good about it.
Cons: After i installed this product, I am not able to send any email with the figures inserted into the message body. I tried contacting the support but no reply.
Summary: There is no update on version since 2005 as I can see the reviews from 2005 for version 4.1 and it is still the same version in 2009. Not sure if this is anymore maintained by anyone. Waste of money. If someone know any other good product please l... read more

"Great app for import/export of Outlook emails"
Pros: Only app I could find that could rip a HUGE number of PST files and simply convert and organize them any way I wanted.
Cons: The extractions menu should probably be simplified - I'm an advanced user and am not accustomed to reading help files to figure out how to set up "extract to" folder settings, etc.
