Question:

I have a problem with WinBatch 2001n and Postie Extender V10024 on Windows NT 4.0.

When i receive a mail with attachments using:

kInit ( ... )
kGetMail ( 1, Filename, "", "", "" )

it works fine and saves the attachments, except those times the mail has an attachment like the following:

------_=_NextPart_000_01C18794.B7B7A520
Content-Type: application/msword;
name="=?iso-8859-1?Q?T=E4tigkeitsnachweis=2Edoc?="
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="=?iso-8859-1?Q?T=E4tigkeitsnachweis=2Edoc?="
 

Postie puts this string behind the text of the mail:

Attachment: =?iso-8859-1?Q?T=E4tigkeitsnachweis=2Edoc?= (39936 bytes)

So i think Postie don't decode the filename and fails saving it, that's right?

Answer:

v10025 of Postie added a "q" option to the kGetMail flags to automatically decode headers with "=?charset?q?text?= content".
