UiPath provides us the facility to download the attachments from particular mail.

Note:
Pass the EXTENSIONS according to your choice
Example

Step 1:
Drag “Get IMAP Mail Messages” activity into the design panel and populate its properties with required fields.
Step 2:
Drag “For Each” activity into the design panel and pass the above “newMailList” variable to it and change the type in the properties window to “System.Net.Mail.MailMessage”
Step 3:
Drag “Message Box” activity into the For Each activity and pass the “item.Subject” value into it to display the subject.
Step 4:
Drag “Save Attachments” activity into the For Each activity just below the Message Box Activity and pass the required fields as shown below.
Step 5:
Finally, when we run the bot!!!
