Name

MailFormat — objNewMail . MailFormat = intFormatSetting

Synopsis

An integer value that allows you to set whether the current message body is MIME encoded or simple text.

Parameters

intFormatSetting

An integer value that can contain either of the following constants:

CdoMailFormatMIME (0)

The contents of the current message will be in the MIME format.

CdoMailFormatText (1)

The contents of the current message will be plain text. This is the default.

Example

This example demonstrates the use of the MailFormat property of the NewMail object.

<%

' Dimension local variables.
Dim objNewMail
Dim strRecipList

' Instantiate a NewMail object.
Set objNewMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")

' Set the MailFormat property to plain text (although
' this isn't strictly necessary since it's the default).
objNewMail.MailFormat = cdoMailFormatText

' Set the body string for the message.
objNewMail.Body = _
   "Wow, this message takes just a few lines of code."

' Send the message. For details about the Send method,
' that section in this chapter.
objNewMail.Send "[e-mail]","[e-mail]", _
   "This is the subject",,cdoHigh

%>

Notes

The value of the MailFormat property becomes the default setting for the EncodingMethod parameter of the NewMail object's AttachURL and AttachFile methods.
