Hey!

My code is below, and the problem is that some of the emails i get from my POP3 account cannot be read, but with a simple unix email client it can be. It would be very helpful if you can find me what the problem is, or give me some advices.

ps.: yes, i have read the tutorials already.

String[] messageText = new String[500];

Store store = session.getStore("pop3");
            store.connect(host, username, password);
            Folder inbox = store.getFolder("INBOX");
            inbox.open(Folder.READ_ONLY);


            Message[] messages = inbox.getMessages();          


            for(int i = 0; i < inbox.getMessageCount() ; i++)
            {
                Message m = messages[i];
                Object o = m.getContent();

                if (o instanceof String) messageText[i] = (String)o;
                else if(o instanceof Multipart)
                {
                    Multipart mp = (Multipart)o;
                    int count = mp.getCount();

                    for(int j = 0; j < count; j++)
                    {
                        BodyPart b = mp.getBodyPart(j);
                        String disposition = b.getDisposition();

                        if (disposition != null && disposition.equals(BodyPart.ATTACHMENT)))
                        {


                            DataHandler handler = b.getDataHandler();
                            messageText[i] += "file name : " + handler.getName();
                        } else
                        {
                            messageText[i] += b.getContent();
                        }


                    }
                 }
                }

                store.close();


        }
        catch(Exception ex)
        {
            notif("Failure    -  " + ex.getMessage());

        }
