<p>Ordinarily, you get a message object structure by passing a file or some text to
a parser, which parses the text and returns the root message object.  However
you can also build a complete message structure from scratch, or even individual
<a class="reference internal" href="email.message.html#email.message.Message" title="email.message.Message"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Message</span></tt></a> objects by hand.  In fact, you can also take an
existing structure and add new <a class="reference internal" href="email.message.html#email.message.Message" title="email.message.Message"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Message</span></tt></a> objects, move them
around, etc.  This makes a very convenient interface for slicing-and-dicing MIME
messages.</p>
<p>You can create a new object structure by creating <a class="reference internal" href="email.message.html#email.message.Message" title="email.message.Message"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Message</span></tt></a>
instances, adding attachments and all the appropriate headers manually.  For MIME
messages though, the <a class="reference internal" href="email.html#module-email" title="email: Package supporting the parsing, manipulating, and generating email messages, including MIME documents."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">email</span></tt></a> package provides some convenient subclasses to
make things easier.</p>
<p>Here are the classes:</p>
<dl class="class">
<dt id="email.mime.base.MIMEBase">

<dd><p>Module: <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">email.mime.base</span></tt></p>
<p>This is the base class for all the MIME-specific subclasses of
<a class="reference internal" href="email.message.html#email.message.Message" title="email.message.Message"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Message</span></tt></a>.  Ordinarily you won&#8217;t create instances
specifically of <a class="reference internal" href="#email.mime.base.MIMEBase" title="email.mime.base.MIMEBase"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">MIMEBase</span></tt></a>, although you could.  <a class="reference internal" href="#email.mime.base.MIMEBase" title="email.mime.base.MIMEBase"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">MIMEBase</span></tt></a>
is provided primarily as a convenient base class for more specific
MIME-aware subclasses.</p>
<p><em>_maintype</em> is the <em class="mailheader">Content-Type</em> major type (e.g. <em class="mimetype">text</em>
or <em class="mimetype">image</em>), and <em>_subtype</em> is the <em class="mailheader">Content-Type</em> minor
type  (e.g. <em class="mimetype">plain</em> or <em class="mimetype">gif</em>).  <em>_params</em> is a parameter
key/value dictionary and is passed directly to <tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">Message.add_header()</span></tt>.</p>
<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#email.mime.base.MIMEBase" title="email.mime.base.MIMEBase"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">MIMEBase</span></tt></a> class always adds a <em class="mailheader">Content-Type</em> header
(based on <em>_maintype</em>, <em>_subtype</em>, and <em>_params</em>), and a
<em class="mailheader">MIME-Version</em> header (always set to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">1.0</span></tt>).</p>

which only makes sense for <em class="mimetype">multipart</em> messages.  If <tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">attach()</span></tt>

class for MIME messages that are <em class="mimetype">multipart</em>.  Optional <em>_subtype</em>
defaults to <em class="mimetype">mixed</em>, but can be used to specify the subtype of the
message.  A <em class="mailheader">Content-Type</em> header of <em class="mimetype">multipart/_subtype</em>
will be added to the message object.  A <em class="mailheader">MIME-Version</em> header will
also be added.</p>
<p>Optional <em>boundary</em> is the multipart boundary string.  When <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">None</span></tt> (the
default), the boundary is calculated when needed (for example, when the
message is serialized).</p>
<p><em>_subparts</em> is a sequence of initial subparts for the payload.  It must be
possible to convert this sequence to a list.  You can always attach new subparts
to the message by using the <tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">Message.attach()</span></tt> method.</p>
<p>Additional parameters for the <em class="mailheader">Content-Type</em> header are taken from
the keyword arguments, or passed into the <em>_params</em> argument, which is a keyword
dictionary.</p>
