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.
