html body in e-mails

[infratec]

Hi,

it would be possible if we can replace the Content-type of the packet.
For that a new mail attribute would be nice:

#PB_Mail_ContentType

then we are able to replace the original one with:

Code: Select all

SetMailAttribute(0, #PB_Mail_ContentType, "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1")

It's been requested before:

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=65351

And a POP3 lib to go with it would be great.

However; I don't think it is as easy as just adding setMailAttribute, "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" or Fred would've done it.

On Sep of 2018 I was creating a PHP email program and I realized that PB's way of adding attachments had to be modified in order for it to be able to send HTML. I completely forgot exactly what the problem was but, if you have time to investigate see this hack: viewtopic.php?p=527558#p527558.

If you can replace the content-type, you can do what you want.
Ok, you have to know how to do. But that's not the problem

If you can not replace the content-type ... you can do nothing.

This is a much needed feature.

It's a shame that this still isn't possible, it would make all the difference to the mail library.

We need a native POP3 library as well, so PureBasic can be used to make a full email client.
