Title: extract attachments from mail in a mail folder
Post by: commanda on August 20, 2005, 03:29:00 AM

My sme-server at work, daily sends me several emails with zip attachments. The attachments are mysql dumps and zip archives of a php application.

My webmail filters sort this mail into a seperate folder.

What I want to do is run a cron job on this folder to seperate the mail attachment from the mail, and save it in another seperate folder. It's not necessary to actually unzip it.

Anybody have any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

It's alright, more googling turned up the answer.

uudecode.

And even better, it's already installed.
