mike without knowing exactly what code you have, there isn't much anyone can suggest.

 

how are you accessing the emails in the first place, I would imagine that whatever method you are using would have a way to access email properties including attachments, sorry not a great reply but you haven't given more than a vague description to respond to.

i use this sample:

 

      $structure = imap_fetchstructure($this->mail,$this->messId);
	if (!$structure->parts) {  // not multipart
		$body = $this->getPart($s,0);
	}else {  // multipart: iterate through each part
		$plainmsg = false;
		$htmlmsg = false;
		$attachment = Array();
		foreach ($structure->parts as $partno0 => $p) {				
$piece = $this->getPart($p,$partno0+1);
if ($piece['type'] == 'attachment') {
	$attachment[] = $piece['fileName'];
				//$body['attachment'] = $piece['fileName'];//$this->getPart($p,$partno0+1);
			}else{					
				if ($piece['type'] == 'plain') {
					$plainmsg = $this->formatMessage($piece['body']);
				}
				if ($piece['type'] == 'html') {
					$htmlmsg = $this->formatMessage($piece['body']);
				}
			}
		}
if ($attachment) {$body['attachment'] = $attachment;}
		if ($plainmsg && $htmlmsg) {
			$body['body'] = ($this->userChoice == 'html') ? $htmlmsg : $plainmsg;
			//$body['body'] = $piece['type'];
		}else{
			$body['body'] = ($htmlmsg) ? $htmlmsg : $plainmsg;
			//$data = ($partno > 0) ? imap_fetchbody($mbox,$mid,$partno) : imap_body($mbox,$mid);
		}
	}

 

and the piece from  $this->getPart($p,$partno0+1); that handles attachment......

 

// ATTACHMENT
	// Any part with a filename is an attachment,
	// so an attached text file (type 0) is not mistaken as the message.
if ($params['filename'] || $params['name']) {
		// filename may be given as 'Filename' or 'Name' or both
$filename = ($params['filename'] || $params['name']) ? $params['filename'] : $params['name'];
        $body['type'] = 'attachment';//$data;
$body['fileName'] = $filename;
$body['fileData'] = $data;
	}

 

hope this helps
