Encode Method
Message Object : Encode Method
Byte Array. Provides the buffer to receive the next encoded message segment. A buffer length of 0 will reset encoding to the start of the message.
Description
Generate consecutive segments of the encoded message stream.
Syntax
Visual Basic
Public Function Encode( _
   ByVal Segment As Variant _
) As Long
Parameters
Segment
Byte Array. Provides the buffer to receive the next encoded message segment. A buffer length of 0 will reset encoding to the start of the message.
Return Value
Returns the number of bytes stored in Segment.
Remarks

Each use of this method generates another consecutive segment of the encoded message stream. Each segment can then be streamed by the SMTP Control (for example) for transmission.

Segment may be arbitrarily redimensioned as necessary. The value returned is the only indicator of the number of bytes encoded.

When the entire message is encoded, Segment returns a length of 0 indicating the end. The cycle of segments may be reset at any time by setting Segment to length 0; the next call to the Encode method returns the first segment.

The SMTP Control uses this method to encode and send all messages from its Message property.

Error Codes

This method may generate the following error code (refer to MailErrorConstants for a complete list of error codes):
