# EmailContent
<a name="API_EmailContent"></a>

An object that defines the entire content of the email, including the message headers and the body content. You can create a simple email message, in which you specify the subject and the text and HTML versions of the message body. You can also create raw messages, in which you specify a complete MIME-formatted message. Raw messages can include attachments and custom headers.

## Contents
<a name="API_EmailContent_Contents"></a>

 ** Raw **   <a name="pinpoint-Type-EmailContent-Raw"></a>
The raw email message. The message has to meet the following criteria:  
+ The message has to contain a header and a body, separated by one blank line.
+ All of the required header fields must be present in the message.
+ Each part of a multipart MIME message must be formatted properly.
+ If you include attachments, they must be in a file format that Amazon Pinpoint supports. 
+ The entire message must be Base64 encoded.
+ If any of the MIME parts in your message contain content that is outside of the 7-bit ASCII character range, you should encode that content to ensure that recipients' email clients render the message properly.
+ The length of any single line of text in the message can't exceed 1,000 characters. This restriction is defined in [RFC 5321](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5321).
