Hey Anna,

Unfortunately that was not possible retrieve PDF, ZIP, Word or Excel file from email to Easydiscuss system yet.

Because different email provider also have their own form of secure email with encrypted for PDF, ZIP, Word or Excel format. In other word, the email attachment is a password protected file, currently we do not know how to retrieve these email attachment (PDF, ZIP, Word or Excel) password from different email provider in PHP.

Now only available for the image when post via email e.g. 'jpg', 'png', 'gif', 'JPG', 'PNG', 'GIF', 'jpeg', 'JPEG'.

ok, thanks.

You're welcome.

Fixed it for our own use and is working.

in DiscussMailerMessage->extractPart method added:

    /*

                 * Application

                 */

                elseif ($type == 3)

                {

                        $application = array();

                        $application['mime']	= $subtype; // PDF

			$application['data']	= $data; // binary

                        $application['name']    = isset($params['name']) ? $params['name'] : $params['filename']; // 

                        $application['id']    = $id;

                        $application['size']	= $part->bytes;

                        $application['type']    = 3;

                        $this->attachment[] = $application;

                }

and in DMMailQueue->processEmails method changed:

$imgExts        = array( 'jpg', 'png', 'gif', 'JPG', 'PNG', 'GIF', 'jpeg', 'JPEG' );

to

$imgExts        = array( 'jpg', 'png', 'gif', 'JPG', 'PNG', 'GIF', 'jpeg', 'JPEG', 'pdf', 'PDF' );

as a workaround.

In my opinion it would be better to check the MIME type instead of checking the extension, hence I added the "type" to the attachment array. for my future use if necessary.

Thanks for sharing again

We will see if we can include this in the future release.

ok, if you want to reuse this I'll share the updated code we now use:

in mailbox.php, DiscussMailerMessage->extractPart method changed:

/*

                 * Application or Image

                 */

                elseif ($type == 3 || $type == 5)

                {

                        $myAttachment = array();

                        $myAttachment['mime']	= $subtype; // PDF or GIF etc.

			$myAttachment['data']	= $data; // binary

                        $myAttachment['name']    = isset($params['name']) ? $params['name'] : $params['filename']; 

                        $myAttachment['id']    = $id;

                        $myAttachment['size']	= $part->bytes;

                        $myAttachment['type']    = $type;

                        $this->attachment[] = $myAttachment;

                }

and in mailqueue.php, DMMailQueue->processEmails method changed, checking for the MIME Type, which is now in the attachment['type'] property and if it's an image, do the image stuff...
So no need to have pdf, PDF in the list of $imgExts.

                                       // Check if MIME Type is "image" (TYPEIMAGE = 5)

                                        if ($attachment['type'] == 5) {

                                            // @task: check if the attachment has file extension. ( assuming is images )

                                            $imgExts = array('jpg', 'png', 'gif', 'JPG', 'PNG', 'GIF', 'jpeg', 'JPEG');

                                            $imageSegment = explode('.', $attachment['name']);



//the following is probably not necessary for most other users - we unfortunately use Notes/Domino...

                                            //Skip graycol.gif, which is inserted by Lotus notes on replies.

                                            if ($attachment['name'] == "graycol.gif") {

                                                continue;

                                            }



                                            if (!in_array($imageSegment[count($imageSegment) - 1], $imgExts)) {

                                                $attachment['name'] = $attachment['name'] . '.jpg';

                                            }

                                        }

Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Thanks for sharing the update code again

By the way, are you programmer?

No, I am not a programmer (at least not professional), but I know how to google, I can read manuals like http://php.net/manual/en/function.imap-fetchstructure.php and I like to solve problems

Nice

As a gentle reminder, kindly start a new thread if you have any other issue in the future so it will be easier for us to manage your inquiry. I will lock and mark this thread as resolved.
