I’ve downloaded the project to download mail from a pop3 server from the Code Projects.
It’s realy working fine. But I’v got one problem. I’m new in VB2008 and i need to get the attachment from an e-mail. Is that possible? Do you have some code for me?
Hi Martijn,
No, there is no code at present to do anything with attachments. I have looked into it and it gets very complex because you have to decode all the different mime types. I might start to look into it when i have time but it will be a very complex project. I have seen components out there that will do it, but you have to pay for most of them.
