Automatically download an email to a Windows folder?
As an employee of a Fortune 100 company, I have a designated email address (ie. John@microsoft.com) that I use to send and receive emails.
Let's say that in my inbox I will receive a daily email with subject "Excel Sales for today" and an Excel attachment.
Is it possible to somehow download and save that particular email to a specific folder in my Windows PC? Or at least can I save the Excel attached to the email?
I use the Outlook Web App to access my emails.

You will not be able to automatically download an attachment if you are using OWA. You might be able to filter the email into a specific folder, but what you describe, would require an actual desktop client and an ability (permission) to write and install your own add-on.
