tFileInputMail - detach from HTML mail

Hi,
I have a problem with detaching attachments from HTML mails using tFileInputMail - is it even possible/supported?
From the mail file, I see attachment like this:
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
name="xyz.csv"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

Thanks for your support!

Hi,
Have you checked online component reference TalendHelpCenter:tFileInputMail, which reads the header and content parts of defined email file(The file should be saved in local).
What's your job design? tpop-->tFileInputMail? Could you please show us your work flow screenshots?

Best regards

I have no problems detaching from plaintext mail. But from HTML mail, I have problems.
For testing purposes, I have a local mail file test.mail (I got it from tPop), which I just process via tFileinputMail --> tLogRow. I successfully parse some mail fields (From, Subject, Status etc.), however I don't get attachments detached.

Hi,
What is the schema that you defined for your tFileInputMail?
Basic Settings of tFileInputMail:
Collumn Mail part
SUBJECT SUBJECT
ATTACHMENT ATTACHMENT
Could you please show your component setting screenshot to us?

One thing I've figured.
The content I get from tPOP is:
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
name="xyz.csv"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

If I change that to:
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="xyz.csv"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

... it works! Seems like that I don't get "Content-Disposition: attachment" part from tPOP if the mail is in HTML.
Can you reproduce this? Perhaps I can send you test.mail file?
Regards,
Greg

Hi,
Could you please indicate the build version you're using? Sending the test.mail file to me will be preferred so that we can take a testing for this scenario.

Hi vevavar,
Sorry for delay.
Thanks for your email, however, I cannot get them from drive.google.com. Would you mind sending them to me by attachment?
Best regards

How can I send the attachments to you? I don't have your email. Sorry, I'm new to this forum 0683p000009MACn.png
