Save MIME to a File

Demonstrates the Chilkat Mime.SaveMime method, which serializes the complete MIME entity and writes it to a local file. The only argument is the file path.

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 writes the finished message to disk in one call — producing, for example, an .eml file that mail clients can open. It serializes the whole tree, headers and body and boundaries alike, so the saved file is a complete, self-contained MIME entity.

Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

JavaScript

var success = false;

//  Demonstrates the Mime.SaveMime method, which serializes the complete MIME entity and writes it

var mime = new CkMime();

success = mime.SetBodyFromPlainText("Hello, this is the message body.");
if (success == false) {
    console.log(mime.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

success = mime.SaveMime("qa_output/message.eml");
if (success == false) {
    console.log(mime.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

console.log("Saved.");
