encode Mime base64

Hi
I am using Delphi 6 professional + windows 98
I like to know if there is a component that I can use to encode/decode Mime
base 64.
That is I like to use it as a "stand alone" programme to encode/decode, so
NOT using the
NMPOP3 component and try to get an attachment.
Or better still what is the process to encode a binaryfile and get a MiME
file that can be send by email?
regards
Peter

Indy has TIdEncoderMIME and TIdDecoderMIME classes for that.
Although, the base64 algorithm itself is very basic and thus easy to
implement manually if you choice.

Indy - Internet Direct

You mentioned D6. Indy is already pre-installed in D6, albeit it is an
older version that should be uninstalled andupgraded.

I've posted implementation code to the BCB groups before. You can find my
code at the URL below. It is written in C++, but easily translatable to
Delphi if needed. Let me know if you want that.

Re:encode Mime base64

Best MIME component I have encountered so far for MIME encoding/decoding is
DIMime - www.zeitungsjunge.de/delphi/mime/
It's free and subject to the Mozilla license.

Dear Peter,
Please check our Mail client with functionality similar to Microsoft Outlook

It works with Base 64 as a charm.
