  • Hi Team,

    We are creating an EML file with HTML text as body and the created eml file is showing the body with HTML tags instead of formatted text.

    We have found a fix for this issue: 

    We can set the Content-type header of bodyPart to text/html to display the body content as HTML formatted text instead of text with HTML tags.

    bodyPart.addHeader("Content-Type", "text/html");

    It would be convenient to have Content type of body as a separate AC input/ Parameter for setting the same in the created EML file.
