When i try to save the html_part into my database it also contains the attachment.

If this is a large file this is a massive laod of junk trying to save into the database field.

How can i remove inline attachments from html_part and text_part ?

please help

thanks Rick

During some of our testing with CloudMailin we found that you could iterate through all of the parts and detect if they are attachments or not. That way you can manually construct the text or html part and ignore the attachments. The attachments themselves are never actually within the text they are just additional entries in the list of multipart message.
