I have a servlet-based webmail application, and my problem is the following:


When I send a file attachment to the client browser using ServletOutputStream, the name of the 'file' is changed into the name of the servlet ( for example, if the filename is 'file.zip' its changed to 'mail.zip', coz my servlet url is 'http://...../.../servlet/mail').


How can I correct this? Or should I take a completely different approach to sending files to the client? I obviously don't want to link directly to the file on the server, but instead go via the servlet.


Thanks, Jonas

I'm missing what the issue is here with regards to JavaMail. JavaMail doesn't send responses from a servlet. Your JavaMail API usage stops once you've gotten the content of the message. Check the Servlets FAQ for how to do what you are after. It isn't a JavaMail issue.
