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

$mime = New-Object Chilkat.Mime

# The contents of this MIME file are shown below, 
# and is also available at https://www.chilkatsoft.com/sampleMime.txt
$success = $mime.LoadMimeFile("qa_data/mime/sampleMime.txt")
if ($success -eq $false) {
    $($mime.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# The MIME used in this example has the following nested structure
# 
# multipart/alternative
#     text/plain
#     multipart/related
#         text/html
#         image/jpeg
# 

# Adding a top-level MIME header is easy.
$mime.AddHeaderField("hello-world","Hello World!")
# If a header field of the same name already exists, the AddHeaderField
# method adds a duplicate.
$mime.AddHeaderField("Subject","This is the 2nd Subject header.")
$($mime.GetEntireHead())
$("-")

# The top-level header now looks like this:
# 
# 	Subject: Test email.
# 	Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="------------DB171738719FB06D67DEBAA0"
# 	MIME-Version: 1.0
# 	hello-world: Hello World!
# 	Subject: This is the 2nd Subject header.
# 

# The RemoveHeaderField method can remove the 1st occurrance, or all occurrences.
$bAllOccurrences = $true
# Remove all occurrences of the Subject header;
$mime.RemoveHeaderField("Subject",$bAllOccurrences)
$($mime.GetEntireHead())
$("-")

# After removing all Subject header fields, the top-level header now looks like this:
# 
# Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="------------DB171738719FB06D67DEBAA0"
# MIME-Version: 1.0
# hello-world: Hello World!
# 

# The content of a header field can be updated by calling SetHeaderField.
# If the header field does not already exist, it is added.  Otherwise it is updated.
# Note: The order of header fields SHOULD never matter.
$mime.SetHeaderField("hello-world","Goodbye World.")
$($mime.GetEntireHead())
$("-")

# Now we have:
# 
# 	Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="------------DB171738719FB06D67DEBAA0"
# 	MIME-Version: 1.0
# 	hello-world: Goodbye World.
# 

# To add/update/delete header fields in sub-parts, navigate to
# the sub-part and do the same..

$pJpg = New-Object Chilkat.Mime

# Add a header to the image/jpeg sub-header.
