customize inbound smtp to not split up mails but save as .eml?

Hello there,

Community 23.2.1,

the intention is sending mails to folder - which is working (configured inbound smtp, folder node with email alias aspect)

but inbound mail is split into the .html part, a text part and an attachment.

whats the approach to save inbound mails as a whole .eml file?

it isnt anything about folder rules, right?

thanks and regards, thomas

Unfortunately the default inbound SMTP implementation will always split up the parts of an email into individual files. Since I had a customer who did not want that behaviour, I actually implemented an enhanced inbound SMTP functionality in my Alfresco Utility (https://github.com/Acosix/alfresco-utility) module that stores the whole email as EML.

And I can confirm the solution works well.

We are using it in a project.
