Hi.

I am currently developing an application which is able to create documents basing on documents in the mailbox (Messages, appointments etc.)

On these documents I have a richText field to which I want to copy the contents of the "Body".

The code below works fine on Windows if session.convertMime = True

...
Set it = docMail.GetFirstItem( "Body" )
If Not it Is Nothing Then
Set rti = New NotesRichTextItem(docCRM,"Attachment")
If it.Type = 1 Then 'RichText
Set rti2 = it
Call rti.AppendRTItem( rti2 )
Else 'Text
Call rti.AppendText( it.Text )
End If
End If
...

However it seems that Lotus on Mac ignores the session.convertMime flag and even though it is set to True, on some emails it.Type returns 25 (MIME_PART). The same messages viewed on a Windows machine have it.Type = 1.

My Question is:
Is there a way to additionally force this conversion on Mac?
Or maybe store and display the content of a multipart MIME Entity using the richText field?
Any ideas?

Thanks.
