READ BINARY
READ BINARY reads only those messages which contain binary attachments. It
can be combined with other operators to read certain classes of messages
(e.g. UNREAD, SINCE, FROM, etc.) with binary attachments.
After Envoy 100 delivers the header and text information of the selected
message(s) the user will receive the following information for each binary
attachment:
*** Binary Data: xx,xxx bytes ****
File Name: (up to 20 characters) File Format: (up to 20 characters)
Do you wish to download binary data?
'xx,xxx' is the file size in bytes. The File Name: and File Format: are
descriptive labels.
If the user enters 'YES' or 'Y' to the above prompt Envoy 100 will initiate
an XMODEM file transfer with the user's computer. At this point the user
must invoke the XMODEM file transfer from their computer to receive the
binary file from Envoy 100. The exact manner in which XMODEM is invoked
depends on the communication software being used and the documentation for
that package should be consulted for this information.
If the user enters 'NO', 'N' or '[cr]' to the above prompt the binary
attachment will not be transferred and the user will be at the Action?
prompt.
