Why doesn't this mail message decode correctly?

Question

I have this code. It\'s from the Zend Reading Mail example.

$message = $mail->getMessage(1);

// output first text/plain part
$foundPart = null;
foreach (         


        

Answer 1

This could be because of base64 encoding. The Zend_Mail docs say (under 'encoding'):

...All other attachments are encoded via base64 if no other encoding is given in the addAttachment() call or assigned to the MIME part object later.

Try something like:

echo base64_decode($foundPart->getContent());

Also, read: http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.mail.encoding.html

Hope that helped somehow.
