Hmm... I get a compiler error
[BCC32 Error] Unit1.cpp(29): E2451 Undefined symbol 'TIdAttachmentFile'
[BCC32 Error] Unit1.cpp(29): E2451 Undefined symbol 'attachment'
[BCC32 Error] Unit1.cpp(29): E2303 Type name expected
[BCC32 Error] Unit1.cpp(29): E2379 Statement missing ;
>>>>>>>>>this is offending code ??? am I missing an include file
TIdAttachmentFile *attachment = new 
TIdAttachmentFile(msg->MessageParts,"C:\\Ada\\Src\\plan.cpp");
    // set attachment's properties as needed...
