Knew it must have been something simple. This is working great now.
Although I have noted that when forwarding on an email with a mime attachment, everything gets cut from the body tag and above as it is re-generated. This caused problems for styles but we have worked around it.

Just wanted to state that I really appreciate the help in getting this working.

Hello again,

I have tried several times to attach a Mime.822 file to an email using the following method:
call newMail.attachments.add(utilities.TempFiles & “Mime.822”, fgwFile, “Mime.822”)

I have successfully attached the file to the outgoing email but the content of the Mime file does not end up in the body of the email.

Is this the correct method to use or have I made a mistake in some spelling or something?

The Mime file is structured properly and if saved with a .eml extension, it opens up with the correct views, as I would expect to see it.

I can not seem to find much documentation on the use of Mime files in this way.
Guidence with this would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I have noticed that when I set the PlainText of the email as well as having the HTML attahced, the plain text body is used in a forward or reply email and not the HTML.
Is this something that is avoidable? It seems that this is the standard for all emails, perhaps.

It does forward/reply on the HTML view if the PlainText is not set at all.

Thanks so much for the help. This works brilliantly.
This also allows me to set the plain text of the email body as well for those who prefer a plain text email client.

i had tried something similar before but not quite got it.

The quick response is greatly appreciated and has been a great help.

All working wonderfully quickly now.

Thanks very much for your response. I have been able to get this working and all works as I would assume it should.

I have moved on from this back to using the Object API and creating a mail through GroupWise.Account.MailBox.Messages.Add
Is there an easy quick way to add a string list to the body of the email without having to step through each string list item and add it to the body, the code I am using is:

for i = 0 to strtmp.Count – 1
newMail.BodyText = newMail.BodyText + strlist.Strings(i)
next

The problem is with a large string list it takes a long time to fill in the BodyText because it is also reading in itself (BodyText) each time.

Any information to clarify this issue will be greatly appreciated.
