I have a requirement to send emails with zip attachments. I have to extract the data from the database, zip it and then email it. The problem is that I'm trying to do this without actually writing a zip file on the local system. If I attach it as a zip file I have no problem. I've searched high and low for examples but not found any. Is there any technical limitation that precludes this solution? Any ideas , anyone?
I'm using the
Java Mail Api for emailing and the java.util.zip package for zipping.
