Hi gang,
CENTOS 7, perl 5.
I'm having problems with MIME::Parser extracting (correctly) attachments but incorrectly naming them.
An attachment defined as :
Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadshee
+tml.sheet;
name="Copy of 1501733944381-20170803 Dataload.xlsx"
Content-Description: Copy of 1501733944381-20170803 Dataload.xlsx
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="Copy of 1501733944381-20170803 Dataload.xlsx";
size=23847; creation-date="Mon, 09 Oct 2017 12:39:28 GMT";
modification-date="Mon, 09 Oct 2017 12:38:40 GMT"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
... and code defined as...
my $emailfile = basename("$email");
my $tmpdir = "/tmp/$emailfile";
mkdir "$tmpdir";
my $parser = MIME::Parser->new();
$parser->decode_headers(1);
$parser->output_dir("$tmpdir");
my $message = $parser->parse_open("$email");
... and variable $email defined as a full path and filename, I get a file created in /tmp/$emailfilename as
Copy of 150173.xls
Two things. The name is wrong and the suffix is wrong. I can live with the suffix being wrong but it does point to possibly the problem being with the content-type being something MIME::Parser doesn't fully recognise. Anyone come across anything like this? Anyone solve it?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
