Hello,

I have the following code, which actually download the attachements to a
folder when I run the macro.

But what I actually need is, attachements in mails from different person
should be saved in different folder.

For example: Mail for Person "X", attachement in that mail to save in folder
"X"

And I want that macro to run automatically when a new mail hit the inbox.

Here is the code I use:

Sub GetAttachments()
' This Outlook macro checks a the Outlook Inbox for messages
' with attached files (of any type) and saves them to disk.
' NOTE: make sure the specified save folder exists before
' running the macro.
On Error GoTo GetAttachments_err
' Declare variables
Dim Ns As NameSpace
Dim Inbox As MAPIFolder
Dim Item As Object
Dim Atmt As Attachment
Dim FileName As String
Dim i As Integer
Set Ns = GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set Inbox = Ns.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
i = 0
' Check Inbox for messages and exit of none found
If Inbox.Items.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "There are no messages in the Inbox.", vbInformation, _
"Nothing Found"
Exit Sub
End If
' Check each message for attachments
For Each Item In Inbox.Items
' Save any attachments found
For Each Atmt In Item.Attachments
' This path must exist! Change folder name as necessary.
FileName = "C:\Email Attachments\" & Atmt.FileName
Atmt.SaveAsFile FileName
i = i + 1
Next Atmt
Next Item
' Show summary message
If i 0 Then
MsgBox "I found " & i & " attached files." _
& vbCrLf & "I have saved them into the C:\Email Attachments folder." _
& vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Have a nice day.", vbInformation, "Finished!"
Else
MsgBox "I didn't find any attached files in your mail.",
vbInformation, "Finished!"
End If
' Clear memory
GetAttachments_exit:
Set Atmt = Nothing
Set Item = Nothing
Set Ns = Nothing
Exit Sub
' Handle errors
GetAttachments_err:
MsgBox "An unexpected error has occurred." _
& vbCrLf & "Please note and report the following information." _
& vbCrLf & "Macro Name: GetAttachments" _
& vbCrLf & "Error Number: " & Err.Number _
& vbCrLf & "Error Description: " & Err.Description _
, vbCritical, "Error!"
Resume GetAttachments_exit
End Sub

After the 'For Each Item...' line you can check the Item's
SenderEMailAddress property and set the FileName depending on that address.
