The Notes native client has an option to download all attachments to a folder. I cannot found similiar on web based iNotes (8.5). Is there a way to download all attachments at once ?

In the full 8.5 iNotes, you can drag select multiple attachments and then click the disk icon to save them all at once.

At least in 8.5.2 iNotes, not sure about 8.5.0 or earlier versions.

This works with iNotes9, as you can select multiple attachments via CTRL and can then click the save-icon.

However, there will be a "save this file" dialog for every attachment seperately, at least in Firefox.

You can select multiple emails and select Forward, this will combine all attachments into one window. After that click on one of the attachments and in contextual menu select Save All.... However it may not work quiet well when the files have the same filename, but it depends on the operating system whether it can rename the same files.

When you're using specific mail provider, another way is to login to the web mail (e.g. Office 365) and download from there. If no option is provided, use some browser plugin to repeat the same action over and over again (like Selenium IDE or TamperMonkey).

Or forward group of e-mails with attachments to another address which is easier to access (e.g. gmail can group the attachment into single zip file, even when they've the same file names).

Another way is to open the inbox file format directly (NSF format) using alternative software (optionally you can select and archive bunch of e-mails into some specific folder, e.g. in Actions you can Archive Selected Documents into the file). On Windows, the mail files can be found in \Program Files\IBM\Lotus\Notes\Data\mail. See: How do I find where a local Lotus Notes database is?

Im using Lotus Notes 9. I'm able to download multiple documents as follows:-

  • Instead of drag and drop, I will select all the attachments/ files in the email --> right click --> select "save all selected".

Hope this helps :)
