(Java) Create MIME Containing Plain-Text

Calls SetBodyFromPlainText to load plain-text into the MIME body. Also sets the Content-Type header to "text/plain", and the Content-Transfer-Encoding to an appropriate transfer encoding based on the characters found in the text.

    // The MIME should look like this:

    // Description: this is a test
    // MyId: 123
    // Content-Type: text/plain; 
    // Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
    // 
    // This is the plain-text body

    // Note: The Content-Transfer-Encoding may be changed.
    // For example, to use "base64", do this:
    mime.put_Encoding("base64");

    // Show the MIME again, this time using the base64 
    // transfer encoding:
    System.out.println(mime.getMime());

    // It should look like this:

    // Description: this is a test
    // MyId: 123
    // Content-Type: text/plain
    // Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
