How to access an email embedded within another email (i.e. an attached message).

Dim email As New Chilkat.Email()

'  Load an email from a .eml
Dim success As Boolean
success = email.LoadEml("embeddedEmail.eml")
If (success <> true) Then
    MsgBox(email.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


'  Display how many attached emails are embedded within
'  this one:
Dim numAttached As Long
numAttached = email.NumAttachedMessages
MsgBox(numAttached)

'  Get the 1st attached message.
Dim email2 As Chilkat.Email
email2 = email.GetAttachedMessage(0)
If (Not (email2 Is Nothing )) Then

    '  Display the subject, From, and a header field...
    TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text & email2.Subject & vbCrLf
    TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text & email2.From & vbCrLf
    TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text & email2.GetHeaderField("X-SOMETHING") & vbCrLf
End If
