Get the Entire Serialized MIME Body

Demonstrates the Chilkat Mime.GetEntireBody method, which returns the complete serialized body of the current entity. It takes no arguments. For multipart MIME this includes the boundary delimiters and each child part's headers and body.

Note: The file paths are relative to the application's current working directory. Absolute paths may also be used. Supply the paths appropriate to your own environment.

Background: This returns everything below the entity's own headers — for a simple part, just the body; for a multipart, the whole nested structure with its boundaries and child headers. It pairs with GetEntireHead, which returns the header section, so together they let you inspect or reconstruct a message's two halves separately.
