 |
|
I am having trouble with the basics of storing an attachment when
retrieving mail using Indy's POP3 component.
This is what I have... Can anyone point me better? I can't seem to find
a POP3 Indy tutorial anywhere. (I found an SMTP tutorial, but the syntax
to get attachments is different) THANKS!!
Here is a simplied version of what I am doing...
-----------
Msg.Clear; // Msg is a TIdMessage
POP3.Retrieve(i,Msg); // i is set previously
i := Msg.MessageParts.AttachmentCount;
S := Msg.MessageParts.Items[0].StoredPathName;
//?
CheckAttachment := TIDAttachment.Create(Msg.MessageParts,'test1.txt');
CheckAttachment.SaveToFile('test.txt');

StoredPathName is not a member of TIdMessagePart. It is a member of
TIdAttachment. You need to cast the pointer returned by the Items[]
property before you can anything with the attachment. You should be doing
something like this instead:
Msg.Clear;
POP3.Retrieve(i,Msg);
for i := 0 to Msg.MessageParts.Count-1 do
begin
if (Msg.MessageParts.Items[i] is TIdAttachment) then
begin
with (Msg.MessageParts.Items[i] as TIdAttachment) do
begin
SaveToFile(FileName);
end;
end;
end;

CheckAttachment.SaveToFile('test.txt');

You're trying to save a newly created attachment, not an attachment that
already existed in the original message.
