i am using Thunderbird 31.4.0 in which all incomming mail messages generated from java application has attachment of xml and txt extension files
and the problem is that all xml and txt attachment files are embodied in mail body itself ie all attachments are inlined with mail body.
i have unchecked : View->Display attachments inline
It is ok for .xml extension files but not for .txt files.
All is working perfectly in other Mail application, Like gmail,ymail..etc are showing attachments correctly.
Is anyone has any idea to solve this issue.
thank you
Perhaps you could upgrade to version 38.2 or higher. It doesn't display txt/xml inline any more once you unchecked that option.

I am trying to convert Lotus Notes email to MIME format. I found this article to be helpful although I am using Lotusscript not Java. The problem I am running into is that this article does not say how you write the .dxl output to disc as an .eml file. if I use the following notesstream method:
rc2 = strmOutput.WriteText(mimeDoc)
it works but any graphics or attachments that were in the original email are not there. emails that contain attachments don't get written at all. emails that had graphics in them get written but there is a placeholder for the graphics in the resultant .eml file instead of the actual graphic. I have not figured out how to successfully capture all of the graphics and attachments so that everything that was in the original email appears in the .eml file. I have been trying to figure this out for months. if someone could elaborate on this that would be great
I was expecting the graphics and attachments to be in the resultant .eml file but they are not there
My university deletes students' Outlook email account after they graduate and so I am exporting my inbox at a .olm file.
I figured this would be sufficient to save my meaningful emails that I want to save, but I wonder how I will ever open the .olm file if the account itself will be deleted...
Any ideas/info?
Cheers
OLM files are used only by Mac as Database file by Microsoft Outlook and can't be opened by the Windows version of Outlook because the Windows version uses .PST files rather than the OLM format.
assuming you have mac if not then To open OLM files in Windows, you can first convert the OLM file to the PST.
But there are other ways to save Outlook emails
Text only format
Outlook Message Format .msg – the older version of .msg
does not support the full range of Unicode characters.
Outlook Message Format – Unicode the newer of .msg that
includes Unicode characters.
I will use this .msg format. These days ‘plain’ can have Unicode for emoji etc.
Save to Word
Outlook Template .oft to make a template for new emails.
HTML – a web page version of the message
MHT – also a web page but with images etc embedded into a single
file.
making the subject line of the message the file name.
Remember all the above formats are indexed by OS, You will be able to find a saved message by searching words in the message.
Save to PDF
PDF is another way to store ‘permanent’ or archival documents.
look into examples like python or VBA code that can help you save emails to the format you need.
I want to download the files from the particular folder in the outlook(take folder name as Files).
I receive files daily and want to download the latest one.
I would like to use PowerShell script that can go through emails in the Files folder and save the latest attachment by seeing the subject line(For eg if subject line contains "Daily files")into the folder "c:\Files"
I am new to this and have tried reviewing other comments, but not able to get the required code.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
As I understand, you would like to download the attachments of Email from special folder in Outlook. I'm not sure that if you checked this link:
How do I Save Outlook Attachments using Powershell?
However, you could also use the VBA code to achieve your needs. Please see the following link:
Download attachments from specific folder in Outlook
Does anyone know if it it possible to move a received email with attachments, other than .pdf, ex. .txt files to antoher folder than the inbox in Outlook 2010?
I can't find something about "sort by attchement" via powershell.
I hope some of you have some inputs.
I had to do a similar task recently and learnt from this tutorial, which includes a script you can download to modify for your needs:

I ran gmail backup, which marked all my gmail messages as read. Ugh. I actually use that read/unread information. I had just installed Thunderbird, and it shows hundreds of messages in "All Mail" that are unread. Only it had only downloaded the headers, not the messages. So something in Thunderbird knows they are unread, but I'm not sure exactly what.
I read that there are two files for any mail folder, an mbox-format file and a .msf file. The mbox format file for "All Mail" does not have all the messages. However, the .msf file is pretty big, and I wonder if it has all the read/unread info.
If it does, I would consider extracting it, and going back and reapplying it programmatically (say, using gmail4j).
The msf file is using Mork format so reading it is pretty complicated. Fortunately, you don't have to: the mails in the mbox file have a special X-Mozilla-Status header. It's a hexadecimal value combining a number of flags. The lowest bit in this header (0x0001) is only set for messages that are read - if it isn't there then the message is unread.
If you want to read only Header and the Summary part of your Emails, then you can read it from your .msf file of your Mozilla Thunderbird, Since The .msf file is just a index file of Mozilla Thunderbird. So you cannot read all the information of your Emails from it. To read your Emails, you first need to find the location of your INBOX File which doesn't have an extension.
you can find its location from here in your Thunderbird Email client:
C:\Users\admin\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\wb09b73f.default\ImapMail\imap.googlemail.com
Then, copy it and paste it to other location of your system and rename it to INBOX.mbox and then you can easily import it from your Mozilla Thunderbird and can Easily read your Emails after importing it on your Thunderbird.
