VB6 Example When an Outlook user composes and sends a message using either Rich Text Format or HTML Format, Outlook automagically generates a file, winmail.dat, and attaches it to the end of the email. The winmail.dat contains the rich text body and original attachments. To parse winmail.dat (TNEF stream) file, we should use ParseTNEF method.
The following code demonstrates how to parse MAPI winmail.dat in email.
Code: ' The following example codes demonstrate parsing winmail.dat - TNEF stream
' To get full sample projects, please download and install EAGetMail on your machine.
' To run it correctly, please change email server, user, password, folder, file name value to yours
