How to download many email attachments from gmail - download

I have a device that sends daily statistics as an attachment to an email address at gmail. A filter identifies the sender and sequesters the mails into a folder in the mailbox. Currently ~2000 emails have accumulated. I need to download these attachments so the data can be aggregated and analyzed. I supposed I could write a macro to move the mouse, click the right places on the screen, etc. but was wondering if there is a programmatic way to simply download all the attachments from all the emails in a folder.

You can use Gmail API to retrieve attachments:

I want to use Image tracker in my Emails to track recipients who opened the mail or not. I use mail merge on outlook, so how can I put tracking image?

My development team has given me an API, through which I can generate unique image links for all the recipients and send them through mail merge field. Currently, when I am sending emails to recipients with unique image links, the image is rendering in the email content but I don't get any insight in my backend API.
Usually, I use Mail Merge on Word to run the campaigns. And I use Microsoft Outlook as email operator.

Monitor sender's attachment (names only) with Gmail API or Mail Audit API (or with other APIs)?

I'm trying to create an app to monitor employee's file attachments using Google's APIs.
I know that I could download all the emails from the audited user list using Mail Audit API and run scripts on the mails but would there be a better way to get sender's email address with attached file names?
Unfortunately, the only options available are the ones you have already suggested.
However, what you can do is to file a feature request on Google's Issue Tracker here and provide all the necessary details about your use-case and what is it that you want to achieve.

How can I access deleted email from Gmail api?

I need to access deleted email in my domain. But I listed users messages from Gmail API, it returns just undeleted emails. 
Is there anyway to accessing deleted email body, header ,etc. ?

Using VBScript to read inbox from Outlook Web Access

I have an email account, which is accessed via OWA.
I would like to set-up a small VBScript app to periodically check the inbox for new unread messages.
I can already access the OWA account manually but would like to automate this.
You can always use the MAPI function and call (outlook.application) to check the inbox. and read all the inbox messages or even download attachments, mark mail items unread. Create an exe. and call it at startup or schedule a server job.
