OCR email attachments after import

Hi,

As far as I can see there is no way to deal with mail attachments in DT’s applescript dictionary when they form part of a message. DT also can’t search these attachments. I have searched for the script korm mentioned and couldn’t find it.

You have to take one of two approaches at the time of importing: Use either:

  • the ‘Add messages and attachments’ apple mail script that ships with DT. This will save messages and attachments as separate items which can then be sorted, ocred etc; or

  • Use a program like email archiver, which exports emails as pdfs with the attachments in related directories. (See this thread for an explanation of some of the possibilities of this approach - [url]Email Archiver - Using the output in DT])
