Hi @praneshsapmm 

 

For your first question. How to read email/ files from email. Here is a link which might help you out.

And for sending an email with an attachment. Email tool has option. You directly attach the file or provide path through a field.

Hi @praneshsapmm 

 

Yes Email tool can totally do it. I have been using it for a while. As you can see all fields are customizable and can also be loaded from a fields. Which makes it dynamic and very flexible
