Hi.

How can I set up Hazel to work with my email.

I want to set certain emails (invoices from suppliers) with an attached to be sent on to my accounting package

I use Gmail and Apple Mail.

Thanks.

Hazel is meant to operate on files, not emails. While you can have Hazel monitor where the email messages are stored, I would highly recommend against this as manipulating those files out from underneath Mail can cause havoc.

Both Apple Mail and Gmail have their own rule systems so I'd look into using those to do what you want.

If you are using Mail, you could save the attachments to a folder using a script found: http://www.macosxtips.co.uk/index_files ... script.php

From there, Hazel could interrogate the folder and take actions based on that.
