How to save inline images and attachments separatley?

Question

Hi,
I want to save all inline images into a certain directory and all attachments into another directory.
I use the following code to do this:
  Multipart multipart = (Multipart) message.getContent();
        for (int x = 0; x < multipart.getCount(); x++) {
            BodyPart bodyPart = multipart.getBodyPart(x);
            String disposition = bodyPart.getDisposition();
            if(disposition != null){
                 log.debug("Disposition: " + disposition);
                 if (disposition.equals(BodyPart.ATTACHMENT)) {
                      log.debug("Mail has attachment: ");
                     DataHandler handler = bodyPart.getDataHandler();
                     log.debug("FILENAME: " + handler.getName());                    
                     saveAttachment(session, bodyPart, emailData);
                 else if(disposition.equals(BodyPart.INLINE)){
                      log.debug("Mail has inline attachment: ");
                     DataHandler handler = bodyPart.getDataHandler();
                     log.debug("Inline FILENAME: " + handler.getName());
                     saveInlineAttachment(session, bodyPart, emailData);
            else {
                 log.debug(bodyPart.getContent());
        }This approach works when the email has inline images only or attachments only.
It does not work when the email has both inline images and attachments. (Only the attachments are saved).
Come someone please help me correct my solution so that it can process an email that has both inline images and attachments and save them in different directories.
Thank you

Thanks bshannon.
It took me a while to understand what you meant but I think I finally got it.
I modified the getText method in order to save the embedded images:
private Image getImages(Part p, EmailData emailData, String ext) throws MessagingException, IOException {
         if (p.isMimeType("image/*")) {
            InputStream is = p.getInputStream();         
            BufferedImage im = ImageIO.read(is);
            String fileName = "attachments/inline/body " + inlineImageNumber++ + "." + ext;
            File imageFile = new File(fileName);
            ImageIO.write(im,ext,imageFile);
            is.close();
            emailData.getInlineAttachments().add(fileName);
            return null;
        if (p.isMimeType("multipart/related")) {
            Multipart mp = (Multipart)p.getContent();
            Image image = null;
            for (int i = 0; i < mp.getCount(); i++) {
                Part bp = mp.getBodyPart(i);
                if (bp.isMimeType("image/jpeg")) {
                    if (image == null){
                        image = getImages(bp, emailData, "jpg");
                    continue;
                else if (bp.isMimeType("image/gif")) {
                    if (image == null){
                        image = getImages(bp, emailData, "gif");
                    continue;
                else if (bp.isMimeType("image/bmp")) {
                    if (image == null){
                        image = getImages(bp, emailData, "bmp");
                    continue;
                else if (bp.isMimeType("image/png")) {
                    if (image == null){
                        image = getImages(bp, emailData, "png");
                    continue;
            return image;
        else if (p.isMimeType("multipart/*")) {
            Multipart mp = (Multipart)p.getContent();
            for (int i = 0; i < mp.getCount(); i++) {
                Image image = getImages(mp.getBodyPart(i), emailData, "");
                if (image != null){
                    return image;
        return null;
    }
