File Monitor email

I have a folder structure that is nested in a UNC path that I need to monitor for new files. There are a few subfolders that are important
Source folder
Vendor folder (there are about 15 of these)
Subfolders (There are about 10 of these under each vendor all are named the same for each vendor)
Files can be placed in any of the subfolders. When a file is placed in a ny of the subfolders I need to generate an email to the vendor based on their vendor folder name But I also need to be able to put into the email the name of the file and the subfolder name seperately.
The only way i could think of doing this was to create a seperate monitor job for each vendor folder and subfolders so that i could specify a specific email address for each one. The main problem was trying to get the path from the file that was placed in any subfolder into a variable as well as the subfolder name. What is the best way to do this?
Thanks

File monitor can save the list of new files (also changed and removed files). See "Save changes" tab of event editor.
Next you can open the list and process it in the text loop.
