RE: E-mail attachment

JavaMail receives mail wonderfully.   I've actually written my own
application to receive & send mail fairly easy.

Are you sure JavaMail is designed for this?  I only see references to it
"sending" e-mail.  I don't see anything about it recieving.  There's a LOT
to it.  Just finding out what it can do is gonna be a chore.  Does anyone
know if it can extract an attachment from a received e-mail?

David,


  JavaMail is designed for exactly what you are
describing. It is a free api available from the java
site. There is documentation aplenty for it and you
should have no problem getting it going. If you need
some links let me know and i will see what I can come
up with.
