Read mail and attachment

[luca87]

Hello,
I would like to be able to read the attachments (zipper format) of emails that arrived at a mailbox.

Is there any SAS procedure that can allow me to do this?

Thank you

Luca

If by "zipper" you mean ZIP file format the answer is a very qualified "maybe". The Email program you use, your OS, where your SAS runs (SAS running on a server may not see your local mail box or your email server) and settings in the email program.

So you would have to provide the name of your email program (some one may recognize the basic needs for that end) and if  you are using a server version of SAS and which SAS interface you are using: SAS Studio, Enterprise Guide or Foundation (Base SAS), Viya

I had some semi-automated stuff that worked with Outlook until the IT department changed a bunch of properties in the email program and no longer has access from other programs.
