    Use Javamail +jaf for this.........

    OK, this is less kinkier but I felt like trying the utl_smtp pkg so here's what you can do(I've used T kyte's example with a few variations here and there, for eg: with the newer version of javamail/jaf does not require unjar and rejar kind of stuff, they're are readable in the database....)

    [1] First you download javamail api(http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/) and jaf--needed to activate the javamail api(http://java.sun.com/products/javabeans/glasgow/jaf.html).
    Then after downloading extract the mail.jar from the javamail-1_3.zip file and activation.jar from the jaf-1_0_2.zip file into the directory of your choice.

    [2] then load these 2 jar files into your database(I've used 817 here) with the foll. syntax............

    loadjava -u sys/pwd@dbase -o -r -v -f -noverify -synonym -g public activation.jar
    do the same for the mail.jar file..
    For the parameters just type loadjava to understand what they mean...

    [3] then write a java source (for explanations for the syntax(es) I'd advise you to acquire the tom kyte's book, it's excellent...)
    Code:
    sys@NICK817.TARRY.LOCAL>
    sys@NICK817.TARRY.LOCAL> create or replace and compile
      2  java source named "mail"

    hi due to the below

    l_bfile := bfilename( 'MY_FILES', 'OTNToolbar.zip' );
    9 dbms_lob.fileopen( l_bfile );

    -------------------- you are able to execute this part of procedure -----------------
    p_attachment_type => 'application/winzip',
    16 p_attachment_file_name => 'OTNToolbar.zip');
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    In my scenario - I am not having any directory in my oracle database but i am having something like this
    --------
    SQL> desc quot_ole
    Name Null? Type
    ------------------------------- -------- ----
    QUOT_NUMBER VARCHAR2(30)
    QUOT_OBJECT LONG RAW
    -------
    People save either word or pdf documents and unique quot_number like 'abc/2009' is assigned to each object inserted through FORMS 6i OLE Container
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    How do i retrive this data for email - which is not having directory but either
    mimetype=msword or mimetype=pdf and filename = as users push Word of pdf files inside.

    if you can further modify this code to pull the information as per the suggested table above it will be of gr8 help for me to implement.

    Otherwise i am able to receive email as per above with attachment.
