MimeKit

ParameterEncodingMethod Enumeration

The method to use for encoding Content-Type and Content-Disposition parameter values.

Namespace: MimeKit
Assembly: MimeKit (in MimeKit.dll) Version: 4.3.0

Syntax

C#

public enum ParameterEncodingMethod

Members

Member name	Value	Description
Default	0	Use the default encoding method set on the FormatOptions.
Rfc2231	1	Use the encoding method described in rfc2231.
Rfc2047	2	Use the encoding method described in rfc2047 (for compatibility with older, non-rfc-compliant email clients).

Remarks

The MIME specifications specify that the proper method for encoding Content-Type and Content-Disposition parameter values is the method described in rfc2231. However, it is common for some older email clients to improperly encode using the method described in rfc2047 instead.

Example

C#

// Some versions of Outlook expect the rfc2047 style of encoding of parameter values.
foreach (var parameter in part.ContentDisposition.Parameters)
    parameter.EncodingMehod = ParameerEncodngMethod.Rfc2047;
