Willing to pay for answer...

[jhudson]

Hello, I would be willing to pay for a a good code snippet of, starting with the org.jboss.mail.message.Mail, retrieving:
- body content
- body content type
- all attachments with metadata

I can send instant payment using PayPal. If you let me know what you would charge for the answer, I'll let you know if I can pay for it Thank you very much for your time.

Please, can anybody help? I currently am using integrated James but *really* want to switch all the way over to JBoss. But, since it doesn't use the javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage, I'm not sure how to parse the content.

I am willing to pay for the answer... Thanks for your time.

You may want to wait a few days because I think Andy is re-writing some of the code to handle MIME messages.

Ok, thank you very much for the reply. I'm sure that will help me. Thank you.

I'm looking forward to checking out Andy's code as well.

I the mean time, here's what I'm doing - even if it's not pretty, it does work! (I know there are known "problems" with javax.mail, but for the time being we can view messages.)

Sorry, I can't post the complete code for some of the stuff we're doing, but I think this is good enough for a starting point!

You need to get the sender mbean doing something like this:
(There are examples in the JBCS code to see a complete example.)

private String chainName = "jboss.mail:type=MailServices,name=MailSender";
sender = (MailSender) JBMailJMXUtil.getMBean(chainName, MailSender.class);

Then you can get the MailboxService from the sender

MailboxService mbs = this.sender.getMailboxManager();

I do this in a try/catch - writeMessage is copied from the pop3 code...

ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
this.writeMessage(out, message, mbs);
ByteArrayInputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream(out.toByteArray());
String cte = message.getHeader("Content-Transfer-Encoding");
MimeMessage mimeMessage = createMimeMessage(cte, in);

To create a MimeMessage I can use, I do this...
(The content type decoding isn't 100% and I'm not sure why, but works for most things that have content type encoding.)

private MimeMessage createMimeMessage(String cte, InputStream in) {
 Properties props = new Properties();
 Session session = Session.getInstance(props);
 MimeMessage mimeMessage = null;
 if (cte != null) {
 cte = cte.trim();
 log.debug("Decoding CTE as: " + cte);
 try {
 InputStream decodeIs = MimeUtility.decode(in, cte);
 mimeMessage = new MimeMessage(session, decodeIs);
 decodeIs.close();
 } catch (Exception e) {
 log.debug("Error creating MIME message. " + e.getMessage());
 }
 } else {
 try {
 mimeMessage = new MimeMessage(session, in);
 } catch (Exception e) {
 log.debug("Error creating MIME message. " + e.getMessage());
 }
 }
 return mimeMessage;
}

Then you can process the MimeMessage to get the content, attachments, etc.
Hope that helps!
