Instance Method Details

#add_to_body(text_to_add) ⇒ Object

This method adds the given string to all plain text parts of the message. For multipart messages, this simply adds a part containing the text_to_add. This is used for email footers.

Attention: Multipart emails may have a tree structure, i.e. a part may contain several other parts. Therefore, this method calls itself recursively.
