RE: cfpop question
You could try using the free tcpclient com object from intrafoundation (http://www.intrafoundation.com/tcpclient.asp) to open a telnet session and then issue the following commands... USER userid PASS password STAT And this will return something like +OK 3 345910 Which tells you it is holding 3 messages and a total of 345910 bytes. You can get other pop3 telnet command info here: http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/pop3telnet.htm -- Jay > -Original Message- > From: Chris Musial [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 15 July 2004 12:50 > To: CF-Talk > Subject: cfpop question > > does anyone know how to find out how many messages are on a > mail server before actually using cfpop to access the email > information?

CFPOP doesn't support just doing a STAT function... CFX_POP3 does. http://www.web-architect.co.uk/downloads.cfm Paul [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]
Re: CFPOP question
That's an error from your email server. Some servers store email in a single file and limit access to that file to a single process. If the mailbox is being used by one process then the next process will receive a lock error. It could be a matter of doing two CFPOPS at once but I'm not sure.

Re: CFPOP Question
This is true. I have to look at the possibility that it would include the original in the body of the message. Then parse it out.

RE: CFPOP Question
I only want to store the NEW Message in the database as I would already have the original message stored in the DB. Since the BODY of the old message would contain the headers and stuff, I was wondering if anyone had done this before.

Re: CFPOP Question
The 2nd question is when you send an email to someone and then they reply to that message, it now contains their NEW message as well as the original message such as: THIS IS NEW > THIS IS PART OF > THE OLD MESSAGE It will also contain the HEADER information. What I am attempting is to parse the OLD stuff out and just GRAB the new message in which they are conveying. Randy Adkins >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/21/02 10:48 AM >>> > 1.

I use a cfx tag, cfx_pop3date, for this. As far as I know custom solutions are the only solutions in this case. cfx_pop3date will get both the date and the time for you. However, it doesn't *always* work, so I've had to wrap it in to prevent errors. > 2. Any idea on how to grab the NEW MESSAGE and NOT > the replied message.

Re: CFPOP Question
Thanks, but I think my real problem is the often-complained-about CFPOP attachments loop. I was hoping to find an easier way to send attachments through. I can make them viewable online with a hyperlink, but I can't seem to get cfmail to loop through the list. We are running CF 4.5.1 on Win2k. Here is the code I am using: (Everything works except the attachment thing). - Original Message - From: "Chris Lofback <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" Subject: RE: CFPOP Question Sarah: I assume the mail client is totally web-based? If so, I suppose you could have the download template copy the attachment file to a temp directory on the web server and then put an image link in the message that points to the image.
