I recieve data files in text format as attachments and am trying to write a
rule to auto save them to a specific folder as they arrive. I'm on an
Exchange server and need this to run while my lap top email is off.

Any form of code on the Outlook side is only going to run when Outlook is
running. If your admin is open to adding an event sink on the server itself,
it could be done, but otherwise Outlook would need to be running somewhere,
attached to that mailbox.

You may want to ask the Exchange Admin to set up a public folder to accept
email and just have this particular data file addressed to the public folder,
rather than your inbox.
