I am looking for a solution to automatically print an e-mail attachment (PDF file) as soon as a message is received (preferably in Outlook Express). Printing based on a message rule would be ok as well.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks in advance,
Peter

 
According to my knowledge there is no way or any 3rd party tool available to print out an attachment automatically when an email arrives.

/and wouldn't be wise since that would mean you're allowing a program to "execute" a program to do so. BAD security risk.
 
Tools > Rules Wizard...

Check messages when they arrive
which has an attachment
print it
Then, go to any email in a preview pane and select File > Print and check the box for "print attached files with item(s)" and then print the email. The box will stay checked until you uncheck it.
 
The above answer suits for outlook and not outlook express.
