How do I unzip a mail attachment?

Received an email attachment that is zipped, and instructed to open it with Archive Utility. For some reason I cannot open it, or if it is open, find it.

In Mail, hit [save], then click on the zip file

I get a file named "File.bin", but i need a file, which is only named "File".
Can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot

Hi Ralf,
Ref: Receiver Mail Adapter
The attachements are given a .bin extension by default. To change this , the procedure is available in the Mail Adapter FAQ : 856599
Q: Can I choose the name of an attachment in the mail?
A: Yes. Most mail clients use some heuristics based on some MIME headers to derive the name of an attachment. The MIME headers involved in most heuristics are Content-Type, Content-Description, and Content-Disposition. When you create an XI message, the XI payload name is automatically set in the Content-Description. If you want to change or set all of these headers, you can use the MessageTransformBean module (Note 793922) in the adapter framework.

Q: How can I set the file name of a mail attachment?
There are several MIME headers that play a role in how the client retrieves the file name of an attachment. Unfortunately, this behavior differs among various mail clients. The reason for this inconsistent behavior comes from the fact that this mechanism has been extended incrementally. The old way is to use the name parameter in the Content-Type header as specified in RFC1341. For example, you can set the content type of an XML attachment as:
Content-Type: application/xml; name="abc.xml"
RFC1521 discourages the use of this name parameter in anticipation of the new header Content-Disposition, which is defined in RFC1806.
With this Content-Disposition header, you can set the file name as:
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="abc.xml"
Some clients may show the Content-Description value as the file name. The Content-Description header is typically used to associate some descriptive information to an attachment (RFC1341) as in
Content-Description: my xml file
To avoid potential interpretation problems, it is recommended to combine the use of these headers.
Also, the same note contains all info you wnat on the options of the mail adapter. Take a look at it.

How to get filename from mail attachment

Hi all,
I have a XI scenario Mail->XI->RFC. I have created my own adapter module which handle all attachments from incoming mail.
Everything work fine, but in my module I try to get information about filename of mail attachment. I use getContentType() metod to get the filename but this method return only the mimetype of the document. The getDescription() method return olny string "mail attachment". I need to get the original filename of the attachment or at least the file extension.
Is it possible to get the whole filename from mail attachment?
Thanks
Peter

How to use music e-mail attachment coming in w QuickTime Player

I have QuickTime Player 7.1.5
When I download a music attachment from an e-mail, it comes in as Quicktime. Problem is: how do I download it to use it?
Tried to get it into iTunes, but didn't work. Went to QuickTime Player Help, which was of no help.
1) Why does a music attachment (meaning a song, or tune) come in as an e-mail QuickTime file?
2) What can I do with it?

Open iTunes>Music>File>New Playlist
Drag the QT file onto the blank New Playlist window.
For burning, first you need to determine if your iMac is capable of burning (If you are not using external burning hardware.). If so, then w/iTunes still open click the burn disc symbol at the bottom of the iTunes window. iTunes will guide you from there.
For further burning instructions, read iTunes Help Menu, your OS Help Menu & check out the iTunes Forum.
I do not own an iPod, so I can't help you there. Until the iPod knowledgeable users come in here, suggest that you cross-post in one of the iPod Forums for whichever iPod model you have where the iPod users hang out.

How can I read mail attachment for making it to the payload?

Hi everybody,
in the following my scenario:
I have an incoming message with attachment by the mail sender adapter using PayloadSwapBean (because of other messages I have to use the bean). I want to send this attachment by using the mail receiver adapter to fix E-mail-address keeping the FromMailAddress, the MailSubject and the FileName
without the metadata as additional attachment.
I have found a thread where it is explained how to handle "payload as mail attachment and dynamic filename" by java-mapping. So far so good. My question is: How can I make my attachment to be the payload? How can I read the attachment by java-mapping?
Thanks for help.
Reagrds,
Sebastian Linke

How do I customize the Email Attachment name in Email Bursting?

I had worked on BI Publisher extensively on 10g and 11g. I have a client requirement with BIP email bursting to deliver the reports as email attachments. I'm able to do it, and also customize mail body etc. However the email attachment file name is randomly generated with some numbers. I read through the docs, and couldn't find any parameter mapping to the attachment/file name (like we do it with File bursting). How do I specify the mail attachment file names in my Busrting properties?
Thanks,
Padma

Please go through the following link:

I think after the 'Output' we can specify the filename

How do I open a Yahoo E-mail attachment?

When I try to open an e-mail attachment (by touching the attachment and getting a pop-up that asks me if I want to view or save the attachment), no matter which I choose, it goes to the "loading" progress bar, and then I get this message: Sorry, an error occurred. Please try again. If this error persists, there may be a problem with the file you are trying to access.
Have tried with multiple documents, so I do not believe the error is with the file.

Great news! The Yahoo Mail Update fixed the problem.
Now, how to I sync my Facebook Contacts with my new Droid? The old one did it easily...

If I make a copy of an e-mailed attachment , where does it go and how do I access it?

If I make a copy of an e-mailed attachment document, where does it go and how do I access it?

i actually got it figured out. I have multiple email accounts i have to use due to different corporate offices ( which can be a real headache at times). The exchange account is an active server used by Hilton and its an actual account. What was happening is my mail was getting kicked back to their server for storage. Once I contacted Hilton, they corrected it on their end. Thanks for trying to help out.
