Java Forum / General / April 2007Of what types can a message be?
Hi, If i retrieve a message using POP3 in a Message object and call the getContentType() method on it, what all values can I get?(I know "plain/text" and "Multipart/alternate") If I want to display this message or store it somewhere(in some file) how do I do that?(even for a Multipart message) Thanks....

It's "text/plain" and "multipart/alternative". There are other variants of text/ and multipart/. You should read the RFCs. Try googling for multipart/alternative, or MIME. > If I want to display this message or store it somewhere(in some file) > how do I do that?(even for a Multipart message) Depends on what you want to do. Read the API documentation. > Hi, > If i retrieve a message using POP3 in a Message object and call the [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Thanks.... plain/text, multiplart/alternative, and text/html are probably going to be your most popular content types.
