JavaMail and non ASCII characters in file names
I can send attachments with non ASCII file names in JavaMail, but I can't download them I specifically get Java. Java for attachments whose file names contain non ASCII characters io. FileNotFoundException.
For reference only: I am using a similar messagebodypart Setfilename (mimeutility. Encodetext (filename [i]) to encode text and mimeutility Decodetext (bodypart. Getfilename()) to decode non ASCII file names
Is there a solution?
Edit @ bill, this is part of my code, read the attachment I also added properties to my code Setproperty ("mail. Mime. Decodeparameters", "true") and properties Setproperty ("mail. Mime. Decodefilename", "true") property
if (message[a].getContent() instanceof MimeMultipart) {
Multipart multipart = (Multipart) message[a].getContent();
for (int i = 0; i < multipart.getCount(); i++) {
bodyPart = multipart.getBodyPart(i);
disposition = bodyPart.getDisposition();
if (disposition != null && (disposition.equals(BodyPart.ATTACHMENT) || (disposition.equals(BodyPart.INLINE)))) {
DataHandler handler = bodyPart.getDataHandler();
String path = bodyPart.getFileName();
String[] str = path.split("/");
String fileName = str[str.length - 1];
String filePath = ReadConfigPropertiesFile.getPropertyValue("server.buildpath");
System.out.println(fileName);
File tempDir = new File(filePath + user);
if (!tempDir.exists()) {
tempDir.mkdir();
}
File saveFile = new File(tempDir + "/" + fileName);
int count = 0;
while (saveFile.exists()) {
count++;
saveFile = new File(tempDir + "/" + count + "_" + fileName);
}
bufferedoutputstream bos = new bufferedoutputstream(new FileOutputStream(saveFile));
byte[] buff = new byte[2048];
InputStream is = bodyPart.getInputStream();
int ret = 0;
while ((ret = is.read(buff)) > 0) {
bos.write(buff,ret);
}
bos.close();
is.close();
//System.out.println(bodyPart.getContentType());
}else {
//display body (message) of the attachment;
//System.out.println(bodyPart.getContent().toString());
}
}
}
The above code raises a FileNotFoundException on the line bufferedoutputstream BOS = new bufferedoutputstream (savefile)), and this is raised for attachments with file names of non ASCII characters (similar to ሰ ላ ም. PDF) Everything else is fine
Solution
This answer is taken from the comment of @ semytech (OP) It's hard to find it there, so I'll add it as a more visible answer It helps me use Hebrew file names
MimeBodyPart attachment = new MimeBodyPart(); attachment.setFileName(MimeUtility.encodeText(filename,"UTF-8",null));
