mime_part

used to compose a MIME message body part.
any mime_part (in content_type varchar, in content_disposition varchar, in transfer_encoding varchar, in data varchar);
Description

This function is used to make a MIME part that can be used with the mime_body() function.

Parameters
content_type – This parameter is used to specify the media type and subtype of data in the body of a message and to fully specify the native representation of such data. This header embodies much of the power of MIME. The IETF can add new official content types. Additionally, private content-type values can be defined by anyone. Such private content types have values of "x-something" or "X-something", where "something" can take on any value.
content_disposition – This parameter provides information about how to present a body part. When a body part is to be treated as an attached file, the Content-Disposition header should include a file name parameter.
transfer_encoding – The encoding method to use, such as base64.
data – The content of the message.
Return Types

The function returns a MIME part for use with the mime_body() function.

Examples
Creating a MIME message body

This example will show the output in ISQL of producing a two part MIME message using the mime_body() and mime_part() functions.

MIME_PART (null,null,'base64','this is a second')));
