Java Mail API - send email with attachment as com.sun.mail.util.BASE64DecoderStream

we are using Apache Camel Email channel to read emails from mailbox, where participants send emails with XML attachment. We received one email which was not proceed because once Camel tried to read attachment it got attachment attached as com.sun.mail.util.BASE64DecoderStream and we have no decoder for it. I would like to reproduce this issue using Java Mail API but I am not able to sent such a email. The attachment in the email is attached like this:

_002_148827254056800396s1npspdssma1pdnpslocal_
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
    name="20170301_ATC_STATNETT_to_CASC.xml"
Content-Description: 20170301_ATC_STATNETT_to_CASC.xml
Content-Disposition: attachment;
    filename="20170301_ATC_STATNETT_to_CASC.xml"; size=3709;
    creation-date="Tue, 28 Feb 2017 09:02:22 GMT";
    modification-date="Tue, 28 Feb 2017 09:02:22 GMT"
Content-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

--_002_148827254056800396s1npspdssma1pdnpslocal_--

but I was not able to compose such a email with attachment which would be recognised as com.sun.mail.util.BASE64DecoderStream during processing by Camel.

Could you advice to me please? Thanks.

When you get a message with BASE64DecoderStream, you don't need to decode it. That stream is what JavaMail uses to decode the encoded message part. All you need to do is read the stream to get the decoded data.
