This is not a question, just a hint. Recently I wrote a program which extracts attachments from multipart mime mails stored as files. I did this since there are often mails with many attachments (e.g., pictures), and before all, they have unwanted filenames - windows-encoded, strange characters, with blanks, 'JPEG' suffix instead of jpg if your scripts work with 'jpg' files only ...
Makeing nice filenames (including RFC 2047 decoding) was not the problem. However, some quirky mailers (e.g. web.de web mailer) do not have a 'filename' parameter in the 'Content-Disposition' header but only a 'name' parameter in the 'Content-Type' header. So in this case it is recommended to write mediaType, params, err = mime.ParseMediaType(part.Header.Get("Content-Type")) ... fn := part.FileName() if len(fn) == 0 { fn = params["name"] } And then fn can be 'niced' as you want; if fn is empty, a filename should be requested (otherwise, confirm the proposal). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
