I've got an application I am working on that uses MailBee Objects (COM version) to extract attachments from emails and store them in a repository. I've coded it to ignore inline attachments so as not to repeatedly save signature images or emoticons to the repository. We've got an instance of an email with a TIFF image attached that is NOT an inline image, but MailBee reports it as such. Is this a known issue or even an issue at all? How does the system determine what is an inline image and what is not?

Actually, there is no reliable way to determine whether a MIME part is an attachment, an inline object, or a body text since all these definitions are not strict.

In particular, if Content-Disposition: attachment header is missing in the MIME part of TIFF image, MailBee will treat it as inline picture.
