Summary

Extract message. This method has been deprecated. Use the ExtractMessageStart, ExtractMessageData and ExtractMessageEnd methods to extract a message.

Syntax

Boolean Extract (Src, Dest)
  Src String
  Dest String

Description

To extract a message, call the Extract method with the Src and Dest parameters set. The Src parameter must be set to source path and filename and Dest parameter must be set to the destination directory name.

The message header and body are extracted first and saved in the destination directory. The OnExtract event will be fired to inform the application about the filename, encoding type, content type, subtype and level. The FileName, Encoding, ContentType and Subtype properties will be set with the appropriate values before the OnExtract event is fired.

If there are any attachments, they will be extracted and the OnExtract event will contain the information. All encoded files will be decoded and then saved. For Partial messages, the OnExtract message will be fired only when all the parts of the message have been extracted and reassembled. An OnError event will occur to indicate only a part of the message has been extracted.

If an error occurs, then the OnError event will be fired. The application should set a flag in the OnError event, so that it can determine if the action was successful. In addition, the application may want to display an error message in the OnError event to inform the user of the error. Please check the reference page of the OnError event for a complete listing of error codes.

The Extract method returns True if successful; otherwise, it returns False. Calling this method is equivalent to setting the Action property to ACTION_EXTRACT.

Example

Result = Mime.Extract ("c:\temp\test.001", "c:\temp")
If Result = True Then
MsgBox "Extracted message successfully", 64, "Sample Program"
End If

"The night before I went on summer holiday we had to make some 'last minute' configuration changes to approx. 300 routers, a tedious job to do manually with telnet. We went along with MS Excel containing a list of IP-adresses to the routers, and the VIT telnet-component. One hour later the VBA-application (small is beautiful) was working, and after another hour all of our routers were updated with the new configuration. I just say a big "Thanks" to you all for a good sleep that night."
