Description
To create a message, call the CreateX method with the parameters set as described
below. The To parameter must be set to the mailing address (mail message) or the
news group names (news article) of the recipients. The From parameter must be set
to the mailing address of the sender. The Subject, Cc and Bcc
parameters are optional and can be left as empty strings. The IsMime parameter
specifies whether the message to be created is a MIME message (True or 1) or a non-MIME
message (False or 0). The IsNews parameter specifies whether the message to be
created is a mail message (False or 0) or a news article (True or 1).
Please check the reference page of the individual properties for more information.
Plain messages can be plain text or uuencoded. MIME messages can be base64 encoded,
quoted-printable encoded or plain text. The encoding is done by the MIME ActiveX control.
For MIME messages, apart from the above the ContentId, ContentType, Subtype and Charset
(optional) properties have to be set before creating the message. The MessageType property
must be set for partial or external MIME messages.
The OnInformation, OnHeader and OnBody events will be fired to obtain the message
header and body as well as any attachments. Once the header and body of the message is
composed, the OnStatistics event is fired with the number of lines and number of bytes in
the header and body of the message. For partial messages, the OnPartial event will be
fired to obtain the part number and id and for external messages, the OnExternal event
will be fired to obtain the access type and other pertaining information.
If an error occurs, then the OnError event will be fired. The application should set a
flag in the OnError event, so that it can determine if the action was successful. In
addition, the application may want to display an error message in the OnError event to
inform the user of the error. Please check the reference page of the OnError event for a
complete listing of error codes.
After the message has been created the OnData event will be fired to deliver the entire
message to the application. The CreateX method returns True if successful; otherwise, it
returns False. Calling this method is equivalent to setting the Action property to
ACTION_CREATE_X.
Example
Result = Mime.CreateX ("test", "someone",
"Testing", "", "", True, False)
If Result = True Then
MsgBox "Created message successfully", 64, "Sample Program"
End If
