Can attachment be removed after intercepting on mail server?

[Gaurav Handa <ga...@amsoft.net>]

Hi all,

 

On the apache James mail server I am having, I need to remove a particular
attachment from the mail after I receive it on the server. I was successful
to intercept the attachment and read data from it. But the other part of
problem is that I have to write data in the same file or simply remove the
file from mail. 

I think the option of removing the file after finding one should be easier.
Is there some way by which I can remove the attachment from e-mail received
on server?

 

 

Thanks,

Gaurav Handa

Gaurav,

I really think you need to study JavaMail to answer these questions.

Try creating a new MimeMultipart and copying only those parts you want to
retain to the new multipart from the old one.
Then set the new one as the content of the message and save changes.

Or just modify the attachement and save changes.
