RetrievePop3 with attached files

Post by virg.gaillard » Thu Feb 10, 2005 12:30 pm

Hello,

I need to retrieve emails containing attached files, and to work with these attachments.

I have tried RetrievePop3, but attachments are coded in the messages.

Is there a way to get MSGn.txt and its attached files in the target directory please ?

For example, an email containing test.txt.
I want to get in my directory :
MSGn.txt and test.txt.

Thanks for your help,
Virginie

Use MunPack - a command line util which decodes mime encoded messages from files. Download from:

Then you can just do:

Let>RP_WAIT=1
Run>munpack.exe %filename%
