Per this thread, the OneNote connector does not currently allow attachments from emails to make it into OneNote, just text/HTML. Please add this functionality to the OneNote Connector.

It would be a great feature to have the ability to search the contents of a .txt attachment for a string and perform an action based on specified values within the attachment. For example, a .txt document is emailed to a distribution list every hour with results of a data load. The word 'ERROR' is present if the data load fails. However, because the word 'ERROR' is within the body of the attachment, it cannot be filtered using current Outlook Rules. My request is that Flow be able to move this email to a specified folder in Outlook when the word 'ERROR' is present in the .txt document.

There are a number of templates "out there" that facilitate the saving of e-mail attachments to a SharePoint document library but I've not been able to find a way of then updating the columns of the document library with elements from the e-mail. I've tried to add an "Update file properties" action to the "Create file" action, but the only field I'm offered in the Id field is "Size". Is this default behaviour, is there something wrong with the connection, or have I missed something vital?

The ideal goal would be to be able to get a collection of the attachments and/or linked code items from a VSTS work item and attach them (zipped or individual) to an outgoing email where the email's "To" field would come from a custom field in the VSTS work item. The use case would be the following: 1) Creation of a new custom work item type in VSTS (Transmittal) with a custom field speficying the desired recipients (Addressees or similar) and a custom state (Ready for Transmitting) 2) User creates a new instance of the Transmittal work item (State = new) and attaches various files to it and/or links existing code items to it. 3) User sets the work item's state to Ready for Transmitting. 4) Microsoft Flow kicks off to roll up all of the work items attachments and linked code items as a zipped attachment (or individual attachments) to an outgoing email. 5) Microsoft Flow sends that email out to the recipients specified in the Transmittal work items Addressees field. 6) Microsoft Flow updates the work item's state from Ready for Transmitting to Closed.
