So far everything looks good and works fine. Is there any short comings that I should be aware of that can be an issue in the future. I previously used BCB3.Pro NMSMTP but it was really buggy and hard to get working. By the way, better late than never, happy new year to all, and thanks again for providing me with timely and relevant advice and assistance. There are a lot of things that I just could not get going without the assistance of this group. May Borland and this group live 1000 years.

There are a lot of things that I just could not get going without the assistance of this group. May Borland and this group live 1000 years. I got so fed up with TNMPOP3 crashing when retrieving certain emails, I wrote my own POP3 client around the TClientSocket component and a simple POP3 guide. It was easy, and the app I have now never crashes, whatever email I retrieve. Any ideas how to decode attached files - is there a free BCB5 Pro VCL component out there to decode base64, UTF-8, UTF-7, and BinHex (Mac) attachments? -- Mark Jacobs http://www.dkcomputing.co.uk Back to top Remy Lebeau (TeamB) Guest Posted: Tue Jan 31, 2006 6:02 pm    Post subject: Re: Net Masters SMTP "Mark Jacobs" <markj (AT) critical (DOT) co.uk> wrote Quote: Any ideas how to decode attached files - is there a free BCB5 Pro VCL component out there to decode base64, UTF-8, UTF-7, and BinHex (Mac) attachments? Have a look at Indy ([url]http://www.indyproject.org)[/url], ICS ([url]http://www.overbyte.be)[/url], or Synapse ([url]http://www.ararat.cz/synapse)[/url]. They handle all of that stuff for you, and a lot more. Email formats are increasingly complex to parse manually nowadays.

Do you mean the multipart/mixed with parts that themselves are multipart/alternative and so ? If you have an example of what you consider a complex email (.eml), could you please post it as attachment in the attachments group ? The most complex I can think of is a html mail with several attachments of files in different format. Hans.

Yes. Message parts can be nested several levels deep, and even contain other embedded messages that have their own parts.

You can read the following article for an example: HTML Messages http://www.indyproject.org/Sockets/Blogs/RLebeau/2005_08_17_A.en.iwp Quote: The most complex I can think of is a html mail with several attachments of files in different format. Have you ever seen TNEF-encoded messages from MSOutlook? The entire message (including attachments) is encoded as a single binary attachment that is then nested inside a multipart message. When received, you have to parse the MIME to get the TNEF attachment and then parse the binary data to extract the original headers, body, and attachments.

Take the part between two boundaries and handle that recursive. Quote: You can read the following article for an example: HTML Messages http://www.indyproject.org/Sockets/Blogs/RLebeau/2005_08_17_A.en.iwp Looking a few minutes in it it gave already a lot of usefull info. As I am in the process of decoding a mail in its parts a complex mail as example would still be interesting. Quote: Have you ever seen TNEF-encoded messages from MSOutlook?

No. I have never heard of TNEF. Such an .eml mail as example would be nice. Is Outlook Express capable of sending such mails too ? Will google for TNEF soon. Thanks for the info. Hans.
