Explicit instructions that only information in attachments would be reviewed
and the body  of the email  should contain no relevant information.

Unfortunately that idea is a no-go with my boss.... They are intent on
somehow capturing  the body  of the email  as well as the attachments. Thanks
for the suggestion, though!

You can write server-sided scripts in Exchange Public Folders and have them execute on a particular event. So when an e-mail is received, you post the contents of the e-mail as an attachment  to the same e-mail. Then the web part in SharePoint brings the attachments across together.

Sounds easy, doesn't it? [Not]. But I'm sure that it can be done with a little scripting expertise.

Please post the code if someone figures out how to do it.

You can use a third party tool to do this. Livemail from our company
can take resumes and post them into a discussion list or document
library and keep the mail message as well as the attachments.

When you say emailed enabled, do you mean that folks can email  directly to this document  library?

If this is the case, can you share the code. I would love to have something like this for our Extranet. Please share!

It is part of the standard OOB features. Not very hard to configure either. Couple of different screens on SPS and then public folders in Exchange.

You configure a email  enabled public folder. Point the Virtual Server to the root of the public folders and then configure the document  library to a specific public folder. SPS checks the public folder according to the schedule you configure, pulls attachments off the emails in the public folder and puts them into the doclib.

I never knew that that was a OOB feature. I will have to look into this. Thanks! Any write ups on this that you could share would be greatly appreciated (smile)
