Can't you save the text of the message before you extract the attachment? You may need to use a CLOB field.
I don't think CFPOP will let you save attachments to memory rather than a drive, but I'm not positive on that. -----Original Message----- From: Discover Antartica [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 20, 2005 12:31 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Can we save email attachments directly in the database? Got the answer but... But, I want to avoid CF saving it on a folder on the disk and instead go directly to the database. Is there a way? In the example below, cffile is being used to read the file from a folder. I want to skip this step of file being saved in folder first, then being read by cffile and then being put in the database by cfquery. is there a way to do this?
