I am using javamail to save attachments in incoming messages. My code is pasted below. While saving it picks only the first character from the file and saves it with that name. It doesnt pick the whole file name. How do i use it to name the file as the name in my attachments.
here is my code:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import javax.mail.event.*;
import javax.activation.*;
import java.text.*;
import java.util.Calendar;
public class aiginvoice_1 {
public static void main (String args[])
throws Exception {
String host ="omnimail1.omnifax.xerox.com";
String username ="edi";
String password ="ediedi";
// Get session
Session session = Session.getInstance(
new Properties(), null);
// Get the store
Store store = session.getStore("imap");
store.connect(host,username,password);
// Get folder
Folder folder = store.getFolder("INBOX/AIG/EQ");
folder.open(Folder.READ_ONLY);
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader (
new InputStreamReader(System.in));
// Get directory
Message message[] = folder.getMessages();
for (int i = message.length-1,n=message.length;n>i&&i!=-1;i--) {
Date e = message[i].getSentDate();
System.out.println("Message Inbox date :"+e);

Address[] a;
if ((a=message[i].getFrom())!=null) {
for (int j=0;j<a.length;j++)
System.out.println("From : " +a[j].toString());
}
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
SimpleDateFormat fmt1 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd 06:00:00" );
cal.add(Calendar.DATE,-15); //set to 17 days earlier date (15-31)
fmt1.setCalendar(cal); //set to date after 6am
String s2 =fmt1.format(cal.getTime()); //returns yesterday's date in string format
System.out.println("Yesterday's Date in string form before conversion :"+s2 );
SimpleDateFormat fmt2 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss");
Date d2 = fmt2.parse(s2); //to convert the date in string to date form
System.out.println("Yesterday's date in date type is: "+d2);
if (e.after(d2)) {

Object content = message[i].getContent();
if (content instanceof Multipart) {
System.out.println("Multipart" + i);
if ((a=message[i].getFrom()) !=null) {
for (int j=0;j<a.length;j++) {
System.out.println("From : " +a[j].toString());

}
else {
System.out.println("ElseMultipart" + i);
handlePart(message[i]);
}
} // end of (if e.after d2)
else
System.out.println("Old message");
} // end of for loop
// Close connection
folder.close(false);
store.close();
} // end of main
public static void handleMultipart(Multipart multipart)
throws MessagingException, IOException {
for (int i=0, n=multipart.getCount(); i<n; i++) {
handlePart(multipart.getBodyPart(i));
}
} //end of handleMulitipart()

public static void handlePart(Part part)
throws MessagingException, IOException {
String disposition = part.getDisposition();
String contentType = part.getContentType();
if (disposition == null) { // When just body
System.out.println("Null: " + contentType);
// Check if plain
/* if ((contentType.length() >= 10) &&
(contentType.toLowerCase().substring(
0, 10).equals("text/plain"))) {
part.writeTo(System.out);
} else { // Don't think this will happen

System.out.println("Inline: " +
part.getFileName() +

Please advise...
