3733.0. "How to sent binary attachment without creating multiple body parts" by COPCLU::TORBENH (Torben Henrik Nielsen @DMO) Wed Jan 05 1994 15:41

Hi,


I know this has been discussed in the notes file before, but I would like to ask
again ?

I have a customer who want's to send binary files via X400 from ALL-IN-1 IOS. 
This is done today by importing the files from VMS into IOS without any 
conversion. The imported file is now a foreign file. This file is then sent
form either the WP menu or from the EP as an attachment. In both cases the result
is multiple body parts and I don't want multiple bodyparts. (the recieving X400
system don't like multiple bodyparts - I know that multiple bodies are part of	
the real X400 world).
 
From an old notes file I have read:

IOSG::USER3:[NOTES$LIBRARY]ALL-IN-1_V24.NOTE;1

492.1       AIMTEC::PORTER_T    Is DSAB FOREIGN? 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                             -< Is DSAB FOREIGN? >-

ALL-IN-1 packages foreign documents (a binary file is one instance of a
foreign document) by adding a header to the top of the file so that it will
be transported through the mail system unmodified.


Now to my question:

Can you easily write a small application within IOS which can sent out my binary
file without adding any additional headers and bodies ?

(My customer want's to pay "no limet" if this can be done !!!!)


Any help will be greate

    Once you've got your binary into an ALL-IN-1 document, you then need to
    make it into a mail message. Try the following (only partly tested)
    script:
    
    cab add_attr oa$curdoc, "TYPE", oa$mail_type
    cab add_attr oa$curdoc, "MAIL_STATUS", "UNSENT"
    get oa$curmes = oa$curdoc
    mail subject oa$curdoc_title
    cab add_attr oa$curdoc, "PRIORITY", "FIRST_CLASS"
    cab add_attr oa$curdoc, "DR", "NO"
    cab add_attr oa$curdoc, "RR", "NO"
    .exit
    
    Then go to EM and use the MH option to add addresses.
    
    Good luck!
