// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// From: joe@example1.com
// Subject: [v=EMCS.NL][a=NL****][k=****][s=0]
// To: mary@example2.com
// MIME-Version: 1.0
// Content-Type: application/octet-stream; charset=us-ascii; name=6bd8dfe259b3a42c90a28a82b5fc6e77.txt
// Content-Transfer-Encoding: Base64
// Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=6bd8dfe259b3a42c90a28a82b5fc6e77.txt
// Message-Id: <......>
