If your Outlook blocks all kind of attachments, you have here the FINAL resolution to the problem (Outlook doesn't check for Base64 text attachments)
If you put in in Eclipse you get an error, and this is how to solve it: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5549464/import-sun-misc-base64encoder-results-in-error-compiled-in-eclipse (it's easier to ignore errors than using an Apache Commons library)
import sun.misc.BASE64Decoder;
import sun.misc.BASE64Encoder;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.InputStream;
public class Decoder {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
if (args.length < 3) {
System.out.println("Usage: java EncodeFileWithBASE64 d|e");
return;
}
String op = args[0];
String inputFile = args[1];
String outputFile = args[2];
if (op.equalsIgnoreCase("e")) {
BASE64Encoder encoder = new BASE64Encoder();
encoder.encode(
new FileInputStream(inputFile),
new FileOutputStream(outputFile)
);
} else {
BASE64Decoder decoder = new BASE64Decoder();
decoder.decodeBuffer(new FileInputStream(inputFile),
