Downloading attachments from an email through a shell script.

Hi,

I need to download email attachments using shell scripts. How to achieve this as I am a newbie in Linux/Unix environment?

Thanks & Regards,
Amit.

Hey There,

Check out either uuencode/uudecode (for uuencoded attachments) or the freely available mpack/munpack binaries, for MIME attachments.

Best wishes,

Mike
