    Default Export all attachments from Outlook search folder?

    Just wondering if anyone has a decent tool for this, I need to export all of my invoices to give to my accountant. I thought ahead last year and CC'd myself on all invoices I sent and had a filter skip my inbox when messages were sent to that email address with that subject line. So now I have made a search folder in Outlook which contains all of my invoice emails which all have PDF invoices attached. Now I just need to export all of the attachments from the search folder in one go, any ideas how? I thought Outlook would natively support this but I am not an Outlook user so am having trouble finding the option and can't find help online.

    I tried OutlookAttachView but that isn't working, perhaps because these emails exist inside a Gmail IMAP account rather than the default Outlook data file.

    Any help appreciated

    Can you switch cached mode on for gmail so all the email is then on the local machine?
    Which version of outlook?

    Outlook 2010. I am not sure if it has even saved all the messages so I am also looking at my invoice software as I used to be able to sync my phone to my PC and just export the PDFs but can't seem to do that atm :/

    Will be moving to Quickbooks next year I think...

    Just paid a few quid for a 1 month renewal so I can sync my invoices using the apps builtin sync, then download them to my PC using their desktop app and I should then be able to export. Annoying but worth £3 for the time it saves.
