Getting message attachments

Upon retrieving an email message from a mailbox you can get any attachments to the email using the GetAttachments method. Any attachments found are returned as an Enumeration.

Example

[C#]

myImap.Connect();

IEnumerator e = myImap.GetMessages();

while(e.MoveNext()) {

 EmailMessage message = (EmailMessage)e.Current;

 // get attachments for email

 IEnumerator ea = message.GetAttachments();

 while(ea.MoveNext()) {

         Attachment a = (Attachment)ea.Current;

         // get name of attached file

         String filename = a.GetFilename();

         // get data for attached file

         byte[] data = a.GetFileData();

         // process the attachment

 }

}

[Visual Basic]

myImap.Connect()

Dim e As IEnumerator = myImap.GetMessages()

Dim message As EmailMessage = Nothing

While (e.MoveNext())

 message = e.Current

 Dim a As IEnumerator = message.GetAttachments()

 While (a.MoveNext())

         attachment = a.Current

         ' get name of attached file

         Dim filename As String = attachment.GetFilename()

         ' get data for attached file

         Dim data As Byte() = attachment.GetFileData()

         ' process the attachment

 End While

End While
