    I have a client who is complaining that the MIME type of the messages is not compatible with his mail system. He is seeing:
    "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
    --
    _=DotNetOpenMail=_qmeja54msi2j4mgomktcz2r4x1j2ynlx5jwz
    Content-Type: text/++"

    I would like not to send multi-part messages, and set the content type to text/plain. How do I do that?

      Hi-

      His email reader is probably mangling the text that shows the mime type---adding a text part will add a "text/plain" mime attachment, and adding an html part will add a "text/html" attachment. 

      If you're just sending a plain-old 7bit email, you might be able to use the BodyText variable.  But I suspect that if he can't read mulitpart email, his email reader must be about 15 years old, and it's time to upgrade.
