You need to set the PlainText property to false to read rich text into a stream or file, don't know about use of Lines.Text, not mentioned in the help. Use the debugger to ensure you are actually reading RichText. > How do I set the Mime type for the TSmtpCli component. Using RichText for the main email body is not a good idea, since some email clients will be unable to interpret the RTF formatting. It is more common to use HTML for pretty formatted emails. So normally the main body is plain text, and HTML or RichText is an attachment, see the OverbyteIcsMailSnd and OverbyteIcsMailHtml demo projects. You can save your richtext to a file with RTF extension, and add the file name to the EmailFiles list, and the component should automatically set the content type and encode it. Unfortunately the file extension RTF is not currently recognised by the component, since it's virtually never used, so the source would need updating to set text/richtext.
