        message/rfc822
        message/rfc822
        message/rfc822
        message/rfc822
        message/rfc822
        message/rfc822
        message/rfc822
        message/rfc822

VB.NET

Dim success As Boolean = False

Dim emlPath As String = "qa_data/eml/multipart_digest.eml"

Dim email As New Chilkat.Email

' For this example, we'll load the email from a .eml.
' The email could alternatively be loaded as a result of downloading from an IMAP or POP3 server..

success = email.LoadEml(emlPath)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(email.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


Dim numDigests As Integer = email.NumDigests
Debug.WriteLine("num digests = " & numDigests)

Dim eDigest As New Chilkat.Email
Dim i As Integer = 0
While i < numDigests
    email.GetDigestEmail(i,eDigest)
    Debug.WriteLine(i & ":" & eDigest.FromAddress & ", " & eDigest.Subject)
    Dim m As String = eDigest.GetHeaderField("Message")
    If (eDigest.LastMethodSuccess = True) Then
        Debug.WriteLine("    Message = " & m)
    End If

    i = i + 1
