package org.springframework.mail.javamail;

import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;

Callback interface for the preparation of JavaMail MIME messages.

The corresponding send methods of JavaMailSender will take care of the actual creation of a MimeMessage instance, and of proper exception conversion.

It is often convenient to use a MimeMessageHelper for populating the passed-in MimeMessage, in particular when working with attachments or special character encodings. See MimeMessageHelper's javadoc for an example.
