hi
well actually I know what is the mechanism of sending mime messages with
atttachments works, the problem is that I don't know how to to read
attachment. I tried to use Pear decode functions but it only gives me info
that there are attachments in the message which is obviosly not enough.
so I'm putting my question once again: how to read attachment from the
mime message and how to save it on client hard drive???
thanks for any help
