Another thing to note with this - You might not want very much workflow to fire on the initial action that brings the email in. If there is an error in the submit process the entire thing will roll back and it's harder to troubleshoot.
When I've set this up in the past I actually push the emails in with an escalation. Depending on how the emails are entered and what validation you are doing it makes troubleshooting easier. Still, there's easily a case for doing it either way depending on your environment and requirements.

Based on that, you can obtain the Destination ID of the attachment, then in another piece of workflow go to AR System Email Attachments match based on the Attachment ID field, and pull in the attachment. I hope this gives you a good starting point.

When the email is received in the AR System Email Messages form, based on the subject line, the email is pushed to a staging form. On the staging form I do some validation for things like out of office replies, verify the sender, etc. If all criteria are met, then I push to the Work Info. Attachments are the challenge. How do I get the attachments to the staging form?
