Tmail talk - May 2008 - email body: plain text vs html?

Good morning everyone,

I was wondering whether there is any ''built-in'' way in tmail
to
differentiate between the plaintext and the html part of a message''s  
body? E.g. I want to prefer importing the html one if present and only  
the plain text one if no html one is present.

Is there any elegant way to do this?

Cheers and thanks,
-J?rg

Yup, ''content_type''

Don''t know about elegant, but try this:

irb(main):017:0> mail = TMail::Mail.load(''html_email'')
=> #<TMail::Mail port=#<TMail::FilePort:/html_email >
bodyport=nil>
irb(main):018:0> mail.parts.each { |p| puts p.content_type }
text/plain
text/html
=> [#<TMail::Mail port=#<TMail::StringPort:id=0xa2995a>
bodyport=nil>,
#<TMail::Mail port=#<TMail::StringPort:id=0xa298a6> bodyport=nil>]

Then you can decide what to do depending on the value of content_type.

ahhh great, thanks!
