This program will save all attachments so that you could search for the
attachment.

I've got over 3000 mail messages in my OE Inbox, some of them with
attachments. I now need to find a particular message with a Microsoft
Powerpoint attachment, but it's from a couple of years ago and I can't
remember who sent it to me, what date it was, or the subject line - nor
can I remember what the Powerpoint file was called.
I will recognise it when I see it but is there any way I can search by
attachment, ie, do a search for *.pps in the inbox? I must stress, the
attachment has not been saved to my hard drive as such, but is still an
attachment to an email - in other words, I did not right-click on the
attachment and select either "Save" or "Save As". It is just a mail
message with a paperclip icon.
Going to Start Search Files and Folders and searching for *.pps only
turns up the 18 files I have in My Documents, not the hundred(s) I have
as
mail attachments.
TIA,
Pete
