Send Signed and Encrypted EDI Email (EDIFACT)

Demonstrates how to send a signed and encrypted EDI email (EDIFACT email). B4X

Dim success As Boolean = False

'  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
'  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

'   The mailman object is used for sending and receiving email.
Dim mailman As ChilkatMailMan
mailman.Initialize("mailman")

'   Create a new email object
Dim email As ChilkatEmail

'   Build the basic EDI email where the body is the EDIFACT message:
Dim ediMsg As String = "UNB+IATB:1+6XPPC ..."
Dim name As String = "something"
Dim filename As String = "something"
Dim charset As String = "iso-8859-1"
email.SetEdifactBody(ediMsg, name, filename, charset)

email.Subject = "This is the subject"
email.From = "Chilkat Admin <admin@chilkatsoft.com>"
success = email.AddTo("Chilkat Support", "support@chilkatsoft.com")

'   Indicate that the email should be sent signed.
email.SendSigned = True

'   Tell the mailman to use a PFX file as a source for locating
'   the certificate and private key required for signing.
'   The certificate chosen for signing will be the one that
'   matches the sender's email address, which also has
'   a private key.  All intermediate certs in the chain of
'   authentication, up to and including the root, will
'   be included in the signature.
success = mailman.AddPfxSourceFile("/pfx_files/myCertAndPrivateKey.pfx", "secret")

End If


'   Load the .cer file into a certificate object.
'   When sending S/MIME encrypted email, it is the recipient's
'   certificate that is used for encryption.  Only the public key
'   is needed to encrypt.  The recipient is the only
'   one possessing the private key, and therefore is the only
'   one able to decrypt.
Dim cert As ChilkatCert
success = cert.LoadFromFile("/certs/recipientCert.cer")
If success <> True Then
    Log(cert.LastErrorText)

'   Indicate that we want 192-bit 3DES encryption:
email.Pkcs7CryptAlg = "3des"
email.Pkcs7KeyLength = 192

'   Specify the certificate to be used for encryption.

'   Tell the mailman to use an opaque signature (as opposed to a detached signature)
