Abstract module for importing emails attachments.
Each email’s attachment matching a given “Attachment Condition” will be imported creating a new attachment.queue object. These attachment.queue objects are files wrapped with additional fields (mainly a Filed Type and a State) making them ready to be processed by a custom module as you can read in the attachment_queue documentation.
Table of contents
Adding an “Attachment Condition” to your Incoming Mail Server configuration will lead to the creation of attachment.queue objects from emails attachments coming from this server and matching the given Attachment Condition.
🔎 Recalling that, as the Incoming Mail Servers has only one “Create a New Record” field, the emails coming from that server cannot be used to create other type of objects than attachment.queue.
Filling the condition’s File Type field will spread this value to the newly created attchment.queue objects so they can be processed by a custom module following this File Type field value.
