I need to save emails from a particular email address which has "GG123456" in
the email message as a txt file onto a my local hard disk drive. These emails
have to be saved as they arrive. I have looked at message rules but cannot
figure out how to save the message as a .txt file. Any help would be
appreciated. Thanks

You could use a run-a-script-rule that looks for specific words in the
message body and then calls your script. That script could look like this:

Public Sub SaveToFile(Mail as Outlook.MailItem)
Dim Name as String

Name=Mail.Subject
ReplaceCharsForFileName Name, "_"
Mail.SaveAs "d:\" & Name & ".txt",olTXT
End Sub


Private Sub ReplaceCharsForFileName(sName As String, _
sChr As String _
)
' Replaces characters which aren't allowed for file names
sName = Replace(sName, "/", sChr)
sName = Replace(sName, "\", sChr)
sName = Replace(sName, ":", sChr)
sName = Replace(sName, "?", sChr)
sName = Replace(sName, Chr(34), sChr)
sName = Replace(sName, "", sChr)
sName = Replace(sName, "", sChr)
sName = Replace(sName, "|", sChr)
End Sub
