Examples

This button creates a document in MIME format. The MIME content is one .gif file. 
var stream:NotesStream = session.createStream();
// Do not automatically convert MIME to rich text
session.setConvertMIME(false);
var doc:NotesDocument = database.createDocument();
doc.replaceItemValue("Form", "main");
var body:NotesMIMEEntity = doc.createMIMEEntity();
var header:NotesMIMEHeader = body.createHeader("Subject");
header.setHeaderVal("MIME image from GIF file");
if (stream.open("c:\\notes\\data\\folder.gif", "binary")) {
	if (stream.getBytes() != 0) {
		body.setContentFromBytes(stream, "image/gif",
		NotesMIMEEntity.ENC_IDENTITY_BINARY);
	} else requestScope.status = "c:\\lotus\\notes\\data\\folder.gif has no content";
} else requestScope.status = "Error opening c:\\notes\\data\\folder.gif";
stream.close();
doc.save(true, true);
// Restore conversion
session.setConvertMIME(true);
