I'm working on a script that parses email-inbox. How can tell if a message-part is an attachment or an embedded images? This sample mail was sent from a user who tells me his clients embedded the images, but disposition="Attachment" looks like an attached image, I saw AppleMail using "inline" which seems more plausible...
I also have done checks of the msg-text to see if it references the attached file, but in this sample there are also no refs to the files-and yet the user insists they were embedded,not attached.
Structure of the message:
