---------------------------------------------
Summary: Flag in metadata for alternative email bodies
Key: TIKA-2455
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2455
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: parser
Affects Versions: 1.16
Reporter: Matthew Caruana Galizia
Priority: Minor
When multipart RFC822 emails are being parsed, there's no way to distinguish
between alternative versions of the body and attachments.
It would be ideal if some kind of flag were set in the metadata passed to the
{{EmbeddedDocumentExtractor}} that indicates that the stream is an alternative.
In GUIs that present the data extracted from the email, alternative bodies can
be distinguished from attachments and presented separately.
