I'm using MailBee.NET Objects and, in particular, Imap, to loop through messages in a custom mailbox. When I look at these messages in my Outlook (2010) client, or through webmail (again, on Exchange 2010), these messages show up with a text file attachment. But when I loop through msg collection using the Imap object, the HasAttachments property is always false.
I'm using C#/4.0/VS2010. I've set a breakpoint in my code so I can inspect the MailMessage object as I'm looping through them. The individual msg has a content type of "multipart/report", but I don't seem to see how to get the text from any of the "parts"...?
Basically, I need to get to the text in that attachment, so any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Here's some more specifics:
Assembly version: 7.2.4.366.
For testing purposes, I call DownloadEntireMessage method to download the first message in the mailbox. Let's say that's saved to a MailMessage variable called "msg".
1) msg.MimePartTree.GetAllParts().Count --> returns 3
2) msg.MimePartTree.GetAllParts()[0] matches msg.RawHeader
3) msg.MimePartTree.GetAllParts()[1] matches msg.BodyPlainText
4) When I dump out msg.MimePartTree.GetAllParts()[2], I really don't get anything of use at all. The only properties with any values of interest are:
ContentType: "text/plain"
RawHeader: "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n\r\n"
5) I can call the msg.SaveMessage method and save the message to a .eml file. When I open that .eml file in Notepad, I can confirm the 3 "parts" where the first is the message headers, the second is the body, and the 3rd is the text that I see as an "attachment" in Outlook, but don't seem to be able to get at using code...

If you iterate through MimePartTree and Attachments collections, are you getting non-zero number of elements in either of those two?

I'm not entirely sure if this is what you mean, but..
1) msg.Attachments.Count returns 0 (zero).
When I loop through the MimePartTree array, I don't see any Attachment property whatsoever... here's what is returned from the last element in that array (which, as far as I can discern, is what I'm after):
msg.MimePartTree.GetAllParts()[2]
{MailBee.Mime.MimePart}
Boundary: ""
Charset: ""
ContentID: ""
ContentLocation: ""
ContentType: "text/plain"
Description: ""
Disposition: ""
Filename: ""
Headers: {MailBee.Mime.HeaderCollection}
IsComplete: true
IsFile: false
IsInline: true
IsMessageInside: false
IsRelated: false
MailEncodingOriginal: ""
Name: ""
PartType: PlainText
RawHeader: "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n\r\n"
Size: 1277
SubParts: null

My mistake, sorry. I meant BodyParts collection rather than MimePartTree. It can be iterated as shown here.

Yes! The test message I've been using has 2 elements in the BodyParts collection. The last one appears to contain the text that otherwise shows up as an attachment in Outlook.
Thank you!! A bit confusing though...
