"Works great!!"
"I used your WONDERFUL APP to do a migration of EML files from Microsoft Live Mail to Outlook 2016. THANK YOU. God bless you for making this utility!!!"
"Very good tool."

I have tested your utility "Save Attachments". It does NOT set "Date created" and "Date modified" to original file dates, i.e. the dates that it had on the computer from which it was sent. Instead "Date created" and "Date modified" are set to the mail's "Sent"-timestamp. That is, it functions like my VBA routine, see above.

Outlook fields "Received" and "Sent" show hours and minutes, but not seconds. Is it at all possible to include seconds?
I know that you can define a new field by: View ribbon / View Settings / Columns... / New Column... etc.
For this new field it is possible to format e.g. "Sent" as "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss". But then you meet a new problem: You can't sort your mails by a custom column!
So, if I could control the format of "Sent" without having to define a new field, I would be happy. But is this possible?

As far as I understand, when you save a file attached to a mail, its timestamp for LastModified will be NOW, and NOT LastModified of the file that was originally attached to the mail before sending it.
Is it at all possible to retrieve this information - or is it lost when sending the mail?
If the answer is no, I would prefer to have the LastModified timestamp (when saving a mail attachment) made equal to the "Sent" timestamp of the mail. By doing this I am in some way able to keep the chronology of files.
I have made a VBA routine that can handle this. So if you are interested, you can get it! (Xmas present!)
