Create MIME Containing Plain-Text

Calls SetBodyFromPlainText to load plain-text into the MIME body. Also sets the Content-Type header to "text/plain", and the Content-Transfer-Encoding to an appropriate transfer encoding based on the characters found in the text.

Chilkat.Mime mime = new Chilkat.Mime();

bool success;
success = mime.UnlockComponent("Anything for 30-day trial.");
if (success == false) {
    textBox1.Text += mime.LastErrorText + "\r\n";
    return;
}

//  Add a few header fields:
mime.AddHeaderField("Description","this is a test");
mime.AddHeaderField("MyId","123");

string textBody;
textBody = "This is the plain-text body";

mime.SetBodyFromPlainText(textBody);

textBox1.Text += mime.GetMime() + "\r\n";

//  The MIME should look like this:
//  
Description: this is a test
MyId: 123
Content-Type: text/plain; 
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

This is the plain-text body

//  Note: The Content-Transfer-Encoding may be changed.
//  For example, to use "base64", do this:
mime.Encoding = "base64";

//  Show the MIME again, this time using the base64
//  transfer encoding:
textBox1.Text += mime.GetMime() + "\r\n";

//  It should look like this:
//  
Description: this is a test
MyId: 123
Content-Type: text/plain
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
