Hi all!

I'm trying to fetch email message from my mailbox...
Everything works fine, except when i fetch message body of emails having attachment.

I'm using the function below to fetch message body..
$arrbody = imap_fetchbody($this->stream, $this->msg_uid, 1, FT_UID);

Using this function, i got the message body of email without attachment as:

Hi... test message.. please ignore.


and message body for email with attachment, i got:

------=_NextPart_001_0067_01C49A60.EC5D6C60
Content-Type: text/plain;
charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable


Hi... test message.. please ignore.=20

------=_NextPart_001_0067_01C49A60.EC5D6C60
Content-Type: text/html;
charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

charset=3Diso-8859-1">

Hi... test message.. please ignore.
------=_NextPart_001_0067_01C49A60.EC5D6C60--


I tried lot but could not resolve this.

Please help.

Thanks

imap_fetchbody uses a complicated algorithm of assigning part numbers to each message part. So complicated I've personally spent almost a year, off and on, studying it. It doesn't behave the same between different message structures. However, it does behave predictably and consistently, if that makes sense. I have written a whole PEAR package using it and the rest of the c-client extension as a backend. So that said, you are welcomed and encouraged to use my Mail_IMAP PEAR package!

You can find the latest version, source code, extended documentation, etc at my website:
http://www.smilingsouls.net/index.ph...ail_IMAP/index

As for explaining how imap_fetchbody works, you've found the right person to ask, but I don't have time at the moment to go into detail on it, this being an immensely complicated topic. The short answer is, imap_fetchbody is closely related to imap_fetchstructure, so that'd be the place to start. The premise is certain message parts are supposed to be ignored in certain situations. So to get a handle on it, have a look at the source of Mail_IMAP. If you have more questions after looking over Mail_IMAP, I would be happy to answer them.

HTH!

Hi Mitul,

I did downloaded your class file and used it in Drupal. Everything is working fine except I am getting "=20" characters in body. Please help me in solving this.

Thanks in advance,
Chandra

> I am getting "=20" characters in body. Please help me in solving this.

That means the message is encoded as "quoted-printable". There are other types of encoding used as well.

You need to detect the encoding in the message and decode it.
