Hi, I think I have found a bug in the handling of the MIME headers. When sending a mail with an image attached the header is the following, when passing in function MimeBodyPart.getHeader(name, delimiter) Sent mail: getHeader Content-Type on Header : Name 'Content-Type' Value 'image/png' Header : Name 'Content-Transfer-Encoding' Value 'base64' Header : Name 'Content-Disposition' Value 'attachment; filename=jsf- banner.png' Header : Name 'Content-ID' Value '<e944d2ce-d3d4-11da-a54c- e9bd449d3aa2>'returns 1 elements Received mail: getHeader Content-Type on Header : Name 'Content-Type' Value 'image/png' Header : Name 'Content-Id' Value 'BASE64' Header : Name 'Content-Description' Value '7798' Header : Name 'Content-Disposition' Value '<e944d2ce-d3d4-11da-a54c- e9bd449d3aa2>'returns image/png The mail header as seen in my client is: ------=_Part_0_3353614.1145912236129 Content-Type: image/png Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=jsf-banner.png Content-ID: <e944d2ce-d3d4-11da-a54c-e9bd449d3aa2> I see an issue when using the IMAP provider, whereas the same mail can be sent and received without problems using POP. I found this message highlighing a problem in the InternetHeaders.load function. In the code that I got (CVS as of Feb12) and in the latest, the fix proposed in the mail is not applied (use of CRLFInputStream) http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/classpathx-javamail/2005-03/ msg00003.html I would guess that the problem comes from MimeMultipart.parse around line 400. So my question is: How can this parsing problem be fixed ? And is there any code/test for MIME support that I could use as example of how I should use the API to be able to send/receive MIME mail in POP/IMAP ? Thanks in advance, Cedric
