[jira] [Updated] (NIFI-2380) ExtractEmailAttachments processor
should support TNEF files (aka winmail.dat)
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2380?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Andre updated NIFI-2380:
------------------------
Description:
during the review of NIFI-1899 Dan Marshall highlighted some use cases for email processing that have not been addressed as part of the initial development cycle.
One of these use cases was the decoding of Microsoft Transport Neutral Encoding Files (TNEF).
This type of attachments is popularly know as winmail.dat and uses a non RFC compliant structure to transfer attachments across different Microsoft Outlook clients.
Given the prevalence of outlook and the issues with winmail.dat files, it would be nice to be able to decode TNEF as we currently do with MIME attachments.
