When I send a plain text message it is received as a Multipart/mixed content-type using the code:

MessageStream message = new MessageStream();
message.From = new MailAddress(useraddress);
message.To.Add(new MailAddress(rcpt));
message.Subject = tbSubjectValue.Text;
message.Text = wholeMessage;
smtp1.Server = LocalServer;
smtp1.Send(message);

received headers:
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="----=_NextPart_2_905433078"
Date: Fri, 1 Apr 2005 12:42:59 -0500

if I add content type and charset manualy using:

MessageStream message = new MessageStream();
message.From = new MailAddress(loggedusername.Text);
message.To.Add(new MailAddress(rcpt));
message.Subject = tbSubjectValue.Text;
message.Text = wholeMessage;
message.Type = "text/plain";
message.Charset = "iso-8859-1";
smtp1.Server = LocalServer;
smtp1.Send(message);

...then I receive the following headers.

Content-Type: text/plain
MIME-Version: 1.0
Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2005 17:00:49 -0500

I also get the same result using:
charset = "US-ASCII"; and
charset = "iso-8859-1";

There is no charset in the header.
There is also no Content-Transfer-Encoding.

1) will this present any problems delivering mail to other servers.

2) How do I send a simple text email using "US-ASCII" and quoted-printable encoding

3) How do I set these correctly.

Thank you for you help

This the the Mail Tool forum. The code you posted looks like you have Mail for .NET

I think the best way we could help you at this point would be to simplify your example a little and handle this via our regular support (support@dart.com)

Please send us an email containing a test program that uses MessageStream.Store to store a file called "Message.eml" that is your best attempt to create the message. Zip this project up into a single zip file.

To the zip file add a file called "DesiredMessage.eml" that represents what you are shooting for.
