Need software suggestion for auto saving e-mails to disk

I'm looking for an e-mail client that will automatically create a folder on the disk for each new e-mail and can export the contents of the email body / subject / from / etc. to a file within the folder. I also need it to save any attachments to that folder as well.

Re: Language Translation Library?

Thanks, IdeasVacuum - you are more of an IdeasDispenser than a Vacuum :D

We do have fluent bilinguals but they aren't always around to help. Anyway I think I'll just add a button to pop up google translate. They are smart enough to copy / paste and click a button

Long live google...

Ahh, had no idea it was possible to disable the debugger through code. Pretty nifty.

Still, anyone know why it's 'dangerous' ? There has to be a reason this limitation exsists

Re: #File object number very high (over 1000), You sure of t

I want to keep the files locked so that they cannot be overwritten while the program is running. Even when I use #PB_Any when opening files it will sometimes reach a value greater than 1000 and the program will crash when trying to run it from PureBasic.

#File object number very high (over 1000), You sure of that?

Using PureBasic 4.1

I get this error when I try to run my code and I use a number larger than 1000 for my #File parameter in OpenFile, etc.

If I make an EXE it will run fine

Why is this dangerous?
