Good morning :)

We have a need to reach into a mailbox within our exchange 2010 environment and I'm able to get it to watch successfully using the POP3 connection type. It see's the e-mails when they arrive and can delete the message after saving attachments, which is great. What i'm having a problem with, however, is that when it saves an attachment in the specified folder path, it does so in subfolders 2 levels deep.

Folder path: C:\temp\Incoming\
Attachment will get saved here: c:\temp\Incoming\###\Attachments\
(### is a number likely associated with the e-mail id or something, but it numerically increases)

We have an e-mail that will be delivered every day, same subject, same file name. I want to be able to specify that it saves to the same folder, overwriting the file every day as we're using the file to import data into another product we have. Is there a possibility that the e-mail trigger/actions will be updated in the future to allow for something like this?

I realize I could likely have a powershell task or other file task to handle the moving of the file to where I want it after the fact, but that's unclean in my mind.

Just thought i'd ask or maybe i missed something obvious :)

I did set something up to use the variable of the mail trigger for the attachment path in a copy (move) files task so it'd always save to a single folder. So i guess i don't technically need this answered, but it'd be nice to have an option natively in the trigger if it's desired.
