Hi,

i'm not able to receive a file attachment from an email sent by ASINET
smtp-Client with the ASINET POP3-Client.
getFileName()   gets: NIL,
getContentType() gets:  application/octet-stream;

the extension   name="abcd.efg" is missing

But:
- The same mail can be read correctly with other programme like outlook.
- A mail with attachment sent by outlook can normally be read with the
ASINET Pop3-Client.

What is wrong ? Any hints ?

hartmut

I have opened a pdr on this issue.

http://www.alaska-software.com/cgi-bin/waa1gate.exe?WAA_PACKAGE=PUBLICDTS&WAA_FORM=DISPLAYPDR&PDRID=4757

This will be fixed with the next release.

If you are in need of this feature, you may request a reviced Asinet10.dll from our technical support.

Faced a similar problem while trying to recv a file with an attachment from
the samples which came with ASINET.

Also, while testing found it takes pretty long to establish a connection to
port 110 (pop3). We are planning to convert an XB++ inhouse application
which currently looks for a folder (adir() in a thread) which VPOP maintains
for its mail account. Am planning to switch over this to directly retrvng
mails from VPOP (a mail server software used inhouse). It almost took around
120 seconds just on the pop3:connect() line..which I guess establishes a
socket connection with the server.

Anand,

I use VPOP3 cascaded inhouse also. From my point of view the connection 
time from PC two (that receives the mail from PC one) to the other one 
is unacceptable, i.e. much too long. I'm running a 100MBit network. 
Getting the mail locally is done in seconds, but over a network 
connection VPOP3 comes down to a crawl.

I would suspect that your problem is with VPOP3.

Kind regards,

Georg

Georg

Well but while using VPOP3 from telnet (windows one) (telnet 192.168.50.2
110) it takes around 30 odd seconds over out 10MB network.
So am pretty sure its not a problem related to vpop3.

Please confirm this,
Using the asinet you need 120 seconds for the connect line.
When using telnet you need 30 seconds to connect.

From my point of view even the 30 seconds  via telnet is pretty much time. This connect should
be completed in an instance. Additionally you must keep in mind that the connect with the Asinet
does much more then just connecting two sockets, it performs the entire pop handshake protocol.

It would be very interesting how you do communication with the asinet. Do you use the ip address
of the pop server or do you use the machine name wich must be resolved by a domain name server?

Sorry Andreas

I never timed it in case of telnet. What I meant in my prev. mail was that
telnet was far faster. I tried just now with the following command from my
Win98SE machine, Start/Run/telnet 192.168.50.2 110 (note we using IP address
both here as well as in the asinet MAIL example.)

it clocked 3/4 seconds (avg) I tried it 8 times.

Am using IP address of the pop server to communicate in MAIL example of
ASINET
