CFPOP & Attachment

[Guest]

Hi,

How can i get the attachment files from a email?

I'm using the following code:

<CFPOP ACTION="GETALL"

       NAME="Message"

       MESSAGENUMBER="#URL.idMsg#"

       SERVER="server.mail.test"

       USERNAME="test"

       PASSWORD="teste"

       ATTACHMENTPATH="f:\temp\email\">

But all the times i got the file f:\temp\email\winmail.dat.

How can i get the attachment file like pdf, xml and other?

Thank's

If you read through it, there is a link to retrieve emails and save attachments.

Thank you for your help.

I really read the full text, but all i got is a winmail.dat file.

If i use the generateUniqueFilenames i got file like winmail.dat, winmail1.dat, winmail2.dat, winmail3.dat

How can i extract the attachment file from winmail.dat?

Have you made a script that downloads the real attachment using pop?

Can you help?

Thank!

I tested with CF9 on Win7. It worked fine. Here's the code:

<cfpop server="mail.server.com" username="myemail@server.com" password="mypassword" action="getAll" name="my_pop3" startrow="1" maxrows="1" attachmentpath="C:\files\">

<cfdump var="#my_pop3#" />

The attachment was downloaded and stored in C:\files\.

Not sure why you got .dat file. I sent a PDF; and I received a PDF.
