This qualifier specifies the number of the attachment as displayed by the LIST command. In a single part message, no attachment number is displayed. For this case specify attachment number one. EXTRACT extracts the specified attachment to a file in its native file format or in another format specified by the /FDL qualifier. By default, the attachment is written to a file in the default directory, using the name specified by the Content-Disposition header of the attachment. If no file name is provided, the program prompts for one. A file name can be specified in the command to override the value of the Content-Disposition header.
1 /FDL
/FDL=filename Specifies a File Descriptor Language (FDL) definition file to use when converting the specified attachment into an output file. Use this qualifier when the desired file characteristics differ than those produced by the MIME utility default settings, or are different than those specified in the MIME$MAILCAP.DAT file Note that the /FDL qualifier will override the default FDL file specified in MIME$MAILCAP.DAT file (if one exists).
