Remembering this thread about a handy interface for sending mail:
http://tinyurl.com/qvd89

and having installed Turbo C++ Explorer I migrated a bcb5 project.

I'm forced now to take another component for TNMSMTP so decided
for Indy9 TIdSMTP. I soon found out that one has to take TIdMessage
also which is a nice design to compose and see the mail before it is
handed over to the sender. Oh.. and one needs TIdText and TIdAttachment
too.

So I made a wrapperclass (TMyIdMessage) for TIdMessage with only four
methods to be used by the programmer. The wrapper cares for TIdText
and TIdAttachment.

The four methods are:
SetText( AnsiString Text );
SetHtmlText( AnsiString Text );
AddHtmlGraphic( AnsiString FileName );
AddAttachment( AnsiString FileName );

The programmer only uses TIdSMTP and TMyIdMessage.

This is sufficient for mails which are composed as:
-text only
-html only
-text+html
-text+attachments
-text+html+attachments
-text+(html+graphic)
-text+(html+graphic)+attachments

Is it ready now? Well not completely. As mentioned in another post
the resulting boundarys and ContentType's are different from
what they have to be. (The wrapper does not set values for
encoding or contenttype, except for IdText::ContentType).

The nice thing is that thunderbird and OE don't seem to care
as they display as intended.

I will test further this weekend.
For text+(html+graphic)+attachments I will put all code
(without using the wrapper) in a TButton eventhandler, try
it and then post it here and hopefully get help to get
it right. Then I will adapt the wrapper and publish it here.

Hans.
