Hello,

Is it possible to attach multiple attachments in an email, the email is sent through a custom class using SysInetMail, the first attachment works absolutely fine but if I add a second one through code, it overlaps the first one. Any solutions ?

Help Much Appreciated.

Hi Abdul Khaliq,

It's better to use SysMailerNet.quickSend() method where you can specify multiple attachments.

Hi ievgen,

Thanks for the response, I am currently using SysINetMail.sendMailAttachEx() but I don't know why its inconsistent as it does attach multiple files a few times but overwrites the first attachment sometimes. Following is the line where I tries to add my second attachment,

Thanks in advance,

AK

To find a sample of usage of anything in AX you can use cross-references . It will give you more than one example.

Also you can post your code here and we could help you with it.

I am just passing an extra parameter containing filePath of my second attachment and using a single line of code just to add it to the mail.

boolean sendMailAttachEx(str _toName,

str _ccName,

str _subject,

str _text,

boolean _dialog,

str _attachPath,

str _ksAttachPath = '',

str _attachName = '',

boolean _isHTML = false)

{

boolean result = false;

smmOutlookEMail outlookEmail = new smmOutlookEMail();

str folderPath, fullPath = _attachPath,

ksFullPath = _ksAttachPath;//KS

if (outlookEmail.createMailItem())

{

outlookEmail.parmEmailTos(_toName);

outlookEmail.parmEmailCcs(_ccName);

outlookEmail.addSubject(_subject);

outlookEmail.isHTML(_isHTML);

if (_mapiSetup.SignatureNoYes != Signature::Never)

{

_text = _text + '\n\n' + _mapiSetup.Signature;

}

outlookEmail.addBodyText(_text);

if (_attachName)

{

folderPath = System.IO.Path::GetDirectoryName(_attachPath);

fullPath = System.IO.Path::Combine(folderPath, _attachName);

if (System.IO.File::Exists(fullPath))

{

System.IO.File::Delete(fullPath);

}

System.IO.File::Move(_attachPath, fullPath);

}

outlookEmail.addFileAsAttachment(fullPath);

outlookEmail.addFileAsAttachment(KSfullPath);//KS

outlookEmail.sendEMail(smmSaveCopyOfEMail::No, _dialog);

result = true;

}

return result;

}

There is second parameter of addFileAsAttachment method and it is called "_position", did you try to change it from default value 1 ? Something like

outlookEmail.addFileAsAttachment(fullPath); outlookEmail.addFileAsAttachment(KSfullPath, 2);
