Whoa, someone is talking about my code and I'm not even paying attention....
I have that code in prod and it works fine, but you must compile and
install the ytnef binary.
If you look at the code:
@new_files = `/usr/local/bin/ytnef -f Work $path`;
foreach my $file ( @new_files ){
chomp( $file );
push( @tnef_files, $file );
md_syslog( 'info', "Found file $file in winmail.dat attachment" );
}
It uses ytnef to extract the files, if there are files extracted they
are later attached, if not, the winmail.dat file is deleted and nothing
is attached.
Hope that helps,
schu
