Hi All,
I am new to this field.
Iam trying to store the messages into the database from the POP server.
(Messages whcih are stored into the POP)
Are these messages containing XML? If not, an XML parser like Xerces isn't
likely to be much help.
Now I have problem in storing those message in which the body has the
text as well
as the images (like .gif)
But I am succesfully able to store those messages which has the body
contaning
ONLY text.
and even those messages also which has the body as the text and
attachment. in this
senario I am simply storing the path of the attached file.
Is this path (presumably from the MIME section headers) on the sender's or
recipient's machine, though? Most likely the sender's (since their mail
client won't have any idea about the OS or file system of whoever it's being
sent to), in which case it probably won't be a valid path on the machine
processing the mail anyway.
so please guide me how to store those messages whose body contains text
+ images.
Much the same as for attachments, except that the MIME part containing the
file will probably be inside a multipart/related part rather than in a
multipart/mixed. The embedded files will probably be base64 encoded, which
you can decode back to a byte array then store in the database in a BLOB (or
equivalent) column. However, different mail clients may nest things in a
different order when there's both attached or embedded files and a
multipart/alternative for HTML & text versions of the message, so make sure
you test your code using all the common mail clients you're expecting people
to use.
Note: I am writting the script in PHP.
So why are you asking on the mailing list for a java-based XML parser?
You'll have more luck on a PHP list...
Andrew.
