Download: Chilkat .NET Assemblies

C# example program showing how to produce MIME using different content encodings.

// How to use different content-transfer-encodings
// such as quoted-printable, base64, and 8bit.
Chilkat.Mime mime = new Chilkat.Mime();
mime.UnlockComponent("anything for 30-day trial");
    
mime.Charset = "iso-8859-1";
// Begin with 8bit.
mime.Encoding = "8bit";

// Add some Danish text...
mime.SetBodyFromPlainText("Jeg kan spise glas, det gør ikke ondt på mig.");
    		
textBox1.Text = mime.GetMime();
    
/* This MIME is created:

content-transfer-encoding: 8bit
content-type: text/plain;
charset="iso-8859-1"

Jeg kan spise glas, det gør ikke ondt på mig.

*/

// Change the encoding to base64:
mime.Encoding = "base64";
textBox1.Text = mime.GetMime();

/* The MIME is now in base64 format:

content-type: text/plain;
charset="iso-8859-1"
content-transfer-encoding: base64

// Change the encoding to quoted-printable:
mime.Encoding = "quoted-printable";
textBox1.Text = mime.GetMime();

/* The MIME is now in quoted-printable format:

content-type: text/plain;

content-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable
