Content Property
Contains the binary content of the attachment
as a string.
If the attachment is, for example, a GIF file, Content property contains
binary string of image bytes; if the attachment is a text file, Content
property contains the text.
To get the attachment's content as an array use ContentAsArray
property. This is useful for downloading files with ASP's BinaryWrite
method.
In the case when the attachment was previously saved to disk, you can use GetFileAsArray
method of the Message object to get file's content as array.
To save the attachment's content to disk, use SaveFile
method.
Note: To determine the size of the attachment,
it's more efficient to use Size property instead of Len(Attachment.Content).
