IMPORTANT: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.61 or greater. If this version is not yet available, send email to support@chilktasoft.com. Chilkat will provide the new version upon request.

Demonstrates how to use the SES SendRawEmail action to send an email with an attachment. Note: The total size of an SES email cannot exceed 10MB.

See SES SendRawEmail for more information.
