Opening an email in Lotus Notes and saving the attachment

Zones: Windows OLE Programming, Lotus Notes

Tags: lotus, notes, vba

O.k.

So I don't know if this is actullly possible but I generate a file format via SSH which gets emailed to my inbox. From there I need to save the file to a specific location on my PC then run a macro on the saved file.

My question is, is it possible to open a particular email in lotus notes and then save the attachment to my required location using VBA?

I'm guessing you have to do this by calling the UI classes, but I'm very new to using automation with lotus so I'm not that proficient with the objects yet.

I know how to initialise a notes session both back end and using the UI class but not to the point in looking in indiidual folders (inbox) etc

A point in the right direction would be great
