Email Center - extracting attachments automatically - extracting blobs

I need to automatically extract attachments to the file system from incoming emails. Is there any available functionality to do this - either functional or through coding using APIs. I have tried using DBMS_LOB.read and UTL_FILE.put_raw to dump the contents of a blob field to a flat file but that doesn't result in a file I can then open - e.g. I've tried this on an Excel spreadsheet file. Any ideas on how to progress?
Thanks

I don't know why your dos code didn't run. It could be
addressing. My limited experience with cfdirectory/cffile/cfexecute
is to type out the complete path at least once.
Good books?
Hard to say, depends on what else you are new at. If you are
new to html, then htmlgoodies.com has good tutorials. So does
webmonkey.com. If you have trouble with sql, I have heard good
things about the SAMS book, Teach Yourself SQL in 10 Minutes by Ben
Forta. I learned javascript by buying the book Teach Yourself
Javascript in 24 Hours. The O'Reilly books are also good. I learned
awk with one of those books.
Glad you liked the fish pics. The camera is specified on most
of the pages. If it says Reefmaster, I used an external strobe. If
it says Sony I either used the camera flash only or natural light.
By the way, that is not a Cold Fusion site. It's strictly html and
javascript.

Can we extract blob objects from sql database to a human readable format?

Hi All,
I have question How can we extract
blob objects from Sql database to human readable format ?
Blob includes Images, text and docs.
Thanks

One thing you can do if its sql 2012 or later is to load the blob data to FileTable created in database. Then you would be able to physically browse to directory it points and see all files in its native format.

Stored Procedure or function to extract Blob

How can I extract Blob from Oracle to the way it was inserted in the db ? I tried using utl_raw but it gave me "Buffer too small"
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-22835: Buffer too small for CLOB to CHAR or BLOB to RAW conversion (actual:
236143, maximum: 2000)

I am trying this but it's not working for some reason:
create or replace function F(B BLOB)
return clob is
c clob;
n number;
begin
if (b is null) then
return null;
end if;
if (length(b)=0) then
return empty_clob();
end if;
dbms_lob.createtemporary(c,true);
n:=1;
while (n+32767<=length(b)) loop
dbms_lob.writeappend(c,32767,utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(dbms_lob.substr(b,32767,n)));
n:=n+32767;
end loop;
dbms_lob.writeappend(c,length(b)-n+1,utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(dbms_lob.substr(b,length(b)-n+1,n)));
return c;
end;
I get ORA-22921: length of input buffer is smaller than amount requested
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LOB", line 833
ORA-06512: at "SYS.F", line 15

How it can download email attachments automatically?

I want to have my email attachments automatically downloaded from the server. Outlook does it.
please advice how it could be done?

If you enable View/Display Attachments Inline, picture, html and text attachments will automatically be downloaded and shown below the message body. For other file types, you have to do it manually, although it is possible to create a filter that saves attachments to an external folder.

Mail hangs when I try to open emails with certain attachments

When I try to open emails with certain attachments, rather PS files (if I recall correctly) it hangs. It seems that Mail is trying to load the PS file for me, and maybe convert it to PDF, which take awful lot of time.
So at the moment I cannot do anything! Because even if I force quit, and start the Mail program again, it tries to open this same email again!
My question is: How can I prevent Mail from automatically loading attachments? I would the same for images etc. I want the power to load and view attachments whenever I want them to load.

Do you keep the message preview pane open?
If so, close the message preview pane below the message list by double-clicking on the horizontal divider bar that separates the message list from the preview pane.
This will require double-clicking on a message in the message list to open it. If you have the Attachments and Message Size columns selected for the message list, you can select when you want to open a message that contains a large attachment or attachments.
If this is for a POP type account, there is no setting in Mail to prevent a message attachment from being loaded when opening the message if the message with attachment has been downloaded from the server.
Have a look at Mail Attachments Iconizer.

I just installed the Lion operating system, basically to upgrade my iPhone. I didn't realize that my Microsoft Office 2004 application would no longer work. I have been using Word for my writing and I receive most of my emails with Word attachments. I have been using Apple products for years, always touting their reliability and customer service. I am not a techie, I just want to be able to do what I do on the computer and Apple always fulfilled my needs. Now I am told because of some operating system gobbledygook, I have to go out and purchase new software to use Word. This is despicable. I see no particular benefit to using Lion, but I do see a lot of detriments. Apple now seems to have turned into Microsoft, making software obsolete so they can make more money and to **** with the customer. You can be sure that my next computer will be a PC. I have completely lost confidence in Apple.

I seem to never tire of saying this. It was for Apple when they first announced 10.7 to disclose this. Yes, it was widely reported -- or rather, rumored -- but not by Apple. And many people who have gotten caught by this assumed that Apple itself would have told them beforehand about the loss of this very important feature which they had come to rely on. As far as I know, not even in fine print, does this appear anywhere on the Lion announcement or any of its links.
I am not saying Apple had to continue Rosetta in Lion, or forever, just that if it was going to be dropped, it should have been made known.
As relative "insiders" we should not forget that many people don't have the time, habit or interest to do this kind of research. I think it is a breach of trust that Apple has never directly made this announcement or given people the opportunity to decide beforehand if giving up their PPC apps for a new OS is a worthwhile tradeoff.

When I click on a link in an email, it does not automatically open the site page? When I receive an email with a link in it, if I click on the link to open the page, nothing happens. It does not open the internet to that page.

I don't appear to have a toolbar either.

You don't. Email comes in either by push or when you invoke the email app. Ther is no password except when you first set up the account. If your iPad is not being used as your personal device and you need to shield emails from other users, then don't use the email app. Instead, use web mail if available from your provider.

Help! Trying to print emails w/PDF attachments via bluetooth from 8300 to HP OfficeJet8470

Trying to print emails w/PDF attachments via bluetooth from 8300 to HP OfficeJet8470.
My boss shopped for and picked this phone based on the store staff. He wants to be able to have our service tech be able to receive work orders via email, in the form of a pdf attachment, and be able to print using the bluetooth enabled HP Office Jet 8470, hardware that was sold to him in another store with the statements that it would work with his application.
Everything I have seen on this site, and the lack of information elsewhere, leads me to question if we have the correct applications/hardware at all...
If so, I need to be able to explain clearly to my boss any options that we have, and why or why not it won't work.
Any ideas at all? Thanks in advance~    Reagan

Your BlackBerry alone won't connect to a Bluetooth printer. Whoever told him that it would should be questioned.
However, there is an application called BeamSuite, that offers a printing solution specifically for PDF documens that you should explore...
Print Documents to a Bluetooth Enabled Printer
http://www.slgmobile.com/beamsuite.html
BeamSuite is much more than a document viewer though. You can also print your documents directly from your BlackBerry to any Bluetooth enabled printer. Simply pair your BlackBerry device with the printer and print your documents.
If your printer is not Bluetooth enabled, you can still print your documents to it by connecting a Bluetooth printer adapter to your printer that connects to the printer’s USB port. A key differentiator of our solution is that it allows you to easily and transparently print to over 1500 compatible printers from virtually any BlackBerry device, not just the latest and the most powerful BlackBerry.

Can't delete email with large attachments

Received two email with large attachments (photos in format that iphone doesn't recognize). Now can't delete or move to trash these two email. They just return to inbox and mail freezes, goes black, or returns to home screen. Clearing out all other mail in trash doesn't help. Reset doesn't help. I can still receive new email to my inbox and delete those just fine, but these two large email with attachments are stuck in my inbox.

Well, I have the same problem. I tried to delete the specific account and redo it - but the ** email was still there. I've gone to the webmail site for the account, and deleted it there. It's deleted from my laptop, but keeps coming back on my iPhone. So, my iPhone is set to show 25 emails, but I don't understand what you mean by "send yourself 25 messages". Sounds like your solution works, and I'd sure like to try it. Looks like Apple needs to come up with an easier solution too. Thanks.

How do I convert email and all attachments into pdf?

I have multiple emails with attachments that need to be converted to PDF. Using Adobe Pro 11 I can create an email that is pdf with the attachments embedded in their original format, but not as pdf. I can "un-embed" the attachments and convert to pdf, but I really would like to do it all at once. I used another program previously that worked pretty well, but now the powers that be decided that we could no longer use it as it was not supported.
After selecting a group of emails, here is what I would like to be able to produce:
1) Each email is put into an individual folder. In each folder is a pdf of the email, and a pdf of each of the attachments.
2) Each email and its attachments is converted with the attachments becoming part of the file - producing a long pdf document with the email message followed by the attachments. I was able to do this using the program Message Export which we no longer support.
3) Each email becomes a pdf and the attachments become embedded after they were converted to pdf files.
Any ideas are welcome. Below is what I am currently able to produce.
Thanks.
Kevin
Example: Email message below has multiple file types
I can convert it to PDF, but the attachments stay in their original format, and I need them to be converted to pdf.
