I'm looking for an efficient way to automate my workflows that involve handling emails with attachments. The current process I have is pretty manual: I receive an email with an attachment, run the file through a Python script, and then send the output back via email or upload it somewhere. While I have the middle step coded, I still end up moving files around and sending emails manually. I know that I could set something up using AWS, but I'm hoping there's a simpler alternative that links these steps together seamlessly.

You might want to look for a Python library that can help you read your emails. You could filter by specific senders who send attachments and then delegate the processing to your existing Python module. Plus, you can run this setup on just about any server, including your personal computer or a small VPS. Authenticating with most email services isn't too complicated either.
How essential is email for your workflow? It might simplify things to switch to using a Google Form or Microsoft Form for the input instead.
