Embedded images

[Niels Larsen]

Hi Bruce

I need a little help to handle embedded images in emails.
My problem is that if I download multiple emails with images (via POP) the first images in the folder are overwritten. Do you have a tip on how to avoid it?

So, let's assume 2 incoming emails;
with different images
of the same name.

I guess your choices are;
a) store in different folders (one folder per email?)
b) rename incoming images - and tweak eml to point to new images
c) save images in a database, and extract when viewing the eml

Ultimately if you are making an email client then this sort of thing (not just with images, but any attachment) becomes important.

Cheers

Hi Bruce

Thanks for the feedback.
My challenge is where (embed point) to rename or place in another folder?
Of course it's in the Decide method.
