Raw mime encoding class

What is it? This class enables you to manipulate and build a mime email from the ground up.

Why use this instead of mime.php? mime.php is a userfriendly api to this class for people who aren't interested in the internals of mime mail. This class however allows full control over the email.

Eg.

// Since multipart/mixed has no real body, (the body is // the subpart), we set the body argument to blank.

$params['content_type'] = 'multipart/mixed'; $email = new src_mail_MIMEPart('', $params);

// Here we add a text part to the multipart we have // already. Assume $body contains plain text.

$params['content_type'] = 'text/plain'; $params['encoding'] = '7bit'; $text = $email->addSubPart($body, $params);

// Now add an attachment. Assume $attach is the contents of the attachment

$params['content_type'] = 'application/zip'; $params['encoding'] = 'base64'; $params['disposition'] = 'attachment'; $params['dfilename'] = 'example.zip'; $attach =& $email->addSubPart($body, $params);

// Now build the email. Note that the encode // function returns an associative array containing two // elements, body and headers. You will need to add extra // headers, (eg. Mime-Version) before sending.

$email = $message->encode(); $email['headers'][] = 'Mime-Version: 1.0';

Further examples are available at http://www.phpguru.org

TODO:

• Set encode() to return the $obj->encoded if encode() has already been run. Unless a flag is passed to specifically re-build the message.
