POP3 - Mail Headers - Attachments...

G’Day,

I am looking for a lightweight way using POP3 to determine:

-          If a message has an attachment
-          What the name of the attachment is
-          What size the attachment is

I have read the RFC’s and cannot readily see a way to do this. I don’t want
to download the message to get this info. I just want to determine it from
the mail headers if possible. Any ideas or pointers?

TIA

-- Donovan
