The best method would be something like this:
var data = attachment.GetData();
var attachedMessage = new MailMessage();
using(var mem = new MemoryStream(data))
attachedMessage.Load(mem);
Great thanks a lot for the quick reply will try that code
Well, since i seem to be using an older version that code didn't quite work (Load requiered a TextStream and MemStream isn't compatible with that - but your answer did take me in the right direction - i replaced your code with simply:
var attachedMesssage = new MailMessage();
attachedMessage.Load(attachement.Body);
thus using the other Load that receives the message as text
thanks again
This is more of a question than an issue as i am not sure if i am just missing something.
Today i got an e-mail wich had 2 attachements of type message/rfc822. An attachement of this type is another mail message that was sent as an attachement.
For the puposes of my program i need to extract certain attached files from the mail messages i get and handle them according to type of file. However, in this particular case, the files i needed to handle came as attachments inside those two attached mail messages, and as such, i couldn't find them and had to handle this work manually.
Is there a built-in way to turn an attachement of type message/rfc822 into an object of type MailMessage? if not, are there any plans to create one? Can anyone point me out a way to handle this type of situations (extract files from embeded mail messages) using the current setup?
Thanks
