If you want to download the attachments from all the mails in your Microsoft outlook which has a specific subject name. I am very sure if you have 1000 of mails then you don’t want to do it manually. So here is the Attachmentfetcher which does exactly the same.

How to use it:

  1. Down­load the Attachmentfetcher.xlsm from the link pro­vided at the top and at the bot­tom of this article.
  2. Open the Attachmentfetcher.xlsm
  3. Enter the Mail subject keyword here I have entered “Very Specific Subject”
  4. Enter the Local path in your system where you want to download all the attachments
  5. Click the “Fetch” button
  6. That’s it ,, its done. You don’t actually need this step J


NOTE: All the Attachments will have a random number appended at the name , just to avoid the collisions if two or more attachment has the same name.

Example :

  • All Mails
