>>Hi friends,
>>
>>I have an application that needs to know when a new e-mail message has arrived to a certain e-mail account and automatically download the attached files. I already know how to download attached files from an e-mail message, but I really need to download those attached files as soon as the e-mail message has arrived to the e-mail server. Can anybody help me on this?

Hola Cetin,

From the answers I've been given I guess I have to create a little app that uses a timer which from time to time verifies if new e-mail has arrived to that account. Is there somewhere I can learn from to do that?

Thanks

Luis
