Outlook Attach View

To those for whom Microsoft Outlook is second life and their administrator has set limits on the mailbox size, Outlook Attach View is a tiny(78k) portable life saver.

The software program scans the emails of the Microsoft Outlook version that is installed on the computer system for email attachments. These Outlook email attachments are then displayed in a table format which gives the user options to sort the data in all possible ways. The information that are extracted from the Outlook emails are the filename of the email attachment, the recipient, file size and data of creation among other values.

Email attachments can be selected by the user to retrieve additional information about them. It is possible to save email attachments by selecting them and clicking on the Save selected items button in the software program. It is furthermore possible to delete selected email attachments directly in the software as well. This could be a handy way of copying email attachments from Outlook to another hard drive to free up some disk space.

The list of email attachments that has been found can be exported into various formats including text, html and xml.

It is a proof of my Technical ignorance, but I was unable to follow whether this particular thing needs to be installed or it is by default in the outlook. Also, wanted to say that we are really missing you on 3rd floor. The right end corner after entry was synonmous with "Vishal"...Seeing someone else feels weird...In some days, we will also be coming up anyways.- Ravi Kishore.

You should take a look at Xobni (xobni.com). Provides a lot of interesting features as a sidebar in Outlook including attachment view etc :).
