MIME Multipart Boundary and Preamble Properties

See more MIME Examples

Demonstrates the Boundary property, which gets or sets the raw boundary token of a multipart entity (without surrounding quotation marks), and UseMmDescription, which controls whether the conventional preamble text is emitted when serializing a multipart entity.

Background. A multipart boundary separates the constituent parts. Chilkat quotes the token automatically in the header when required. The preamble is ignored by MIME-aware readers and is off by default.
