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

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Http')
$http = new COM("Chilkat.Http");

// Implements the following CURL command:

// curl -s --user 'api:SENDING_API_KEY' 
// 	 https://api.mailgun.net/v3/YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME/messages 
// 	 -F from='Your Name <mailgun@YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME>' 
// 	 -F to='Joe Example <joe@example.com>' 
// 	 -F subject='Hello Joe Example' 
// 	 -F text='Congratulations Joe Example, you just sent an email with Mailgun!  You are truly awesome!'

// Use the following online tool to generate HTTP code from a CURL command
// Convert a cURL Command to HTTP Source Code
