Class MailEncoder


  • public class MailEncoder
    extends Object
    create MIME mail messages from a MailMessage object

    example usage is:

     
     MailMessage = new MailMessage();
     (set elements and attachments ...)
     String message = new MailEncoder(mailmessage).encode();
     
     

    usually you are not using this class directly, rather it will be used by sendMail() in MailClientImpl
