(MFC) Email Body - Plain Text and/or HTML

Any given email may have a plain-text body, an HTML body, or both. The Body property will return the HTML body by default (if it exists) otherwise it will return the plain-text body. There are methods for checking to see if an email has a particular body (HasPlainTextBody and HasHtmlBody) and there are methods for getting a specific body: GetHtmlBody, GetPlainTextBody.
