Mime type for outlook .msg files

Hi,

I hope someone can help me. I do not usualy write question in
newsgroup since I usualy some had the same problem I had. However, I
can't find any articles that would solve my problem.

I am streaming files from a Web Server (.aspx page) using the code
bellow.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Response.Buffer Output = true;
Response.Conten tType = "applicatio n/msword";
Response.Binary Write(bFile);
Response.End();
--------------------------------------------------------------

It works fine when I use common mime type for MSWord or PDF.

However, I would like to be able to stream "MSG" files for Outlook but
I can't find any outlook MIME type anywhere (such as
"applicatio n/msoutlook") that would tell the browser to open MSG
format with outlook.

Does anyone have any idea what path I should follow.

Thank you
David Rousseau

I am struggling with the php mail function so to allow a multipart mime settings where both the message and any set of attachments can be allowed. Teorically, I'd know how to do. I build up my headers and pass them as the fourth argument of the function mail(). Practically, what happens is that whenever I try to test my script emailing myself, what appears in the email body are the __cleartext__ headers.

We've got a couple emails that are sent to an account on a daily basis from a third party vendor we work with. They mime encode the actual data (text/plain) and include it as an attachment (the attachment is the only content the mail body is blank). Most of the people use (bleh) outlook express and these files that are attached use the julian date as the extension (001-365). We need to look at these files everyday and opening them isn't...

I would like to parse an email, which I receive from a pop3 account. While the subject and the sender's email address are probably easy to determine, the body seems to be more difficult because of multi-part messages in MIME format. I am interested only in the plain text. Do you know an easy way to retrieve plain text of the body from an email message? Maybe a class, which can be constructed using the whole message string as a parameter...

This may seem like a stupid question but I want to check before I go ahead and build this... I am working on a portal, part of which allows users to upload files. Part of the array within $_FILES superglobal gives the mime type for the file. Is this 100% reliable / accurate? If the mime type says the file type is jpeg is it always right? Two reasons I want to know: 1. Certain types of files mustn't be uploaded, .exe files for example....

I want to convert rfc822 (.eml) files to MAPI (.msg) files. I do not need to log in to Outlook to retrieve the messages, since the messages have all been downloaded from the exchange server and are sitting in a folder. I also do not need to save the converted file (.msg) to outlook. I merely need to convert the files from .eml to .msg and store the new .msg file in the same directory where I have the .eml files. How do I use...

In outlook, I've setup an advanced search (Ctrl-Shift-F) and saved the search as msgsrch.oss. Next, I've uploaded this file to a field in my web sql server. In my web app, when I click on an email address I'm 1) loading the mshsrch.oss field into a variable, 2) replacing the email address with the one that is clicked on, 3) pushing the file out so that the search pops up un outlook. This is really cool - if it worked. My problem is in step...

Hi folks I'm a bit confused with an upload script that I've written. I want to be able to check the file type of an upload by checking the mime type but I'm not getting the results that I thought I should. According to what I've read .zip files should return something like 'application/zip' or 'application/x-zip-compressed', RAR should return 'application/x-rar-compressed' but both return 'application/octet-stream'. I'm getting the...

Hi, on windows xp I'm using xampp v 1.6.4 I'm trying to send mail. The mail always sends, but the multipart sections are broken. Essentially, I want to send an html email that has a link it, like http://www.google.com so the reader can click on the link. When I get the email, the body is empty.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
