Question

I am trying to download an attachment from GMAIL using the java mail API, this the the code snippet

System.setProperty("mail.mime.base64.ignoreerrors", "true")

if ( mp.getBodyPart(i).disposition == "ATTACHMENT" ) {
    def OutputStream out
    try {
        out = new BufferedOutputStream(newFileOutputStream("/_1test.pdf"));             
        out.write(IOUtils.toByteArray(mp.getBodyPart(i).getInputStream()));
    } finally {
        if (out != null) out.close();
    }
 }

the code runs fine and there are no exceptions, but the file that is created cannot be opened in acrobat

Found the problem, needed to set the partialfetch flag to false…

props.put("mail.imap.partialfetch", "false");
