Stop copy-pasting invoice numbers and re-typing order data. Mail Attachment Downloader PRO Server reads your emails and attachments, extracts exactly the fields you need, looks up related data, and writes it straight into SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, or virtually any ODBC-compatible database — no coding required.
Everything below runs inside rules you configure visually — connect once, and let it run unattended.
Connect via ODBC to the database you already run — no migration, no new infrastructure.
Pull structured values out of unstructured messages before they ever hit your database.
Enrich incoming email data with information that already lives in your database.
Get email data into systems that don't have a modern API.
Set it up once in the rule wizard. Test it. Turn it loose.
IMAP, POP3, Gmail, Outlook, or Exchange
Pull fields from body/attachments, cross-reference your DB
Generated or fully custom SQL — no SQL knowledge required
As a Windows Service, 24/7, in the cloud or on‑prem
Most tools can grab an attachment. Very few can extract, look up, and load structured data into your own database without a developer.
