ImportBodyText Method

Sets value of BodyText property by importing contents of specified file. HTML import option is also available.

In HTML Import mode the following considerations are used while scanning tags of specified html file:

If the tag contains SRC or BACKGROUND attributes, corresponding files are added to attachments collection
If the tag is IMG or INPUT, LOWSRC attribute additionally used to get attachment sources
If the tag is LINK, HREF attribute additionally used to get attachment sources
File paths for embedded objects are considered to be relative to the directory, where specified html file resides. I.e. if you are importing html file "C:\Docs\file.html", and there is line <IMG SRC='images/pic.gif'>, MailBee will search for the file "C:\Docs\images\pic.gif"
If the file denoted by file path for embedded object is found, file is added to attachments collection (as inline object, so Attachment.IsInline=True), corresponding ContentID is generated for the attachment and the tag where embedded object is used is modified (for example, IMG tag will look like <IMG SRC="cid:9094130553-1">)
If the file denoted by file path for embedded object is NOT found, the tag will not be changed

Also, if HTML Import mode is active, the method sets BodyFormat=1 (HTML Format).

blnResult = ObjectName.ImportBodyText(FilePath, [HTMLImport], [AppendMode])


Parameters:
FilePath As String	The path to the file containing body text
HTMLImport As Boolean	(optional) If True, HTML import mode is active. In this mode MailBee scans specified file for embedded objects, images, etc. and adds them as inline attachments to the message. If False, plain text import is assumed. Default value is False
AppendMode As Boolean	(optional) If True, BodyText value is not overwritten by this method, but extended with value generated by ImportBodyText method. Default is False

Return value As Boolean	True if successful. False if error has occurred (file not found, i/o error, etc.)

Remarks:	If the message was received using MailBee.POP3 object, this method will do nothing unless Message.Locked property is set to False

Usage example:

Dim Mailer
'Using visual basic to create object
Set Mailer = CreateObject("MailBee.SMTP")
'Using ASP to create object
'Set Mailer = Server.CreateObject("MailBee.SMTP")
'In ASP use Response.Write instead of MsgBox
Mailer.LicenseKey = "put your license key here"
Mailer.ServerName = "mail.server.com"
If Mailer.Connect Then
  Mailer.Message.ToAddr = "bill@yoursite.com"
  Mailer.Message.FromAddr = "joe@mysite.com"
  Mailer.Message.Subject = "Hello"
  Mailer.Message.ImportBodyText "C:\docs\letter.htm", True
  Mailer.Send
  Mailer.Disconnect
