MimePart is inefficient when handling in-memory data #6

Closed weierophinney closed 3 years ago

This issue has been moved from the zendframework repository as part of the bug migration program as outlined here - http://framework.zend.com/blog/2016-04-11-issue-closures.html

Original Issue: https://api.github.com/repos/zendframework/zendframework/issues/7471 User: @ddxor Created On: 2015-04-30T07:55:22Z Updated At: 2015-11-06T21:30:58Z Body MimePart requires that I pass it a type of resource as part of the object construct.

In my scenario I have just generated a PDF which I want to attach to an e-mail. Using MimePart I have to first write that PDF to disk, get a resource for it, pass that to MimePart which will then read it back from disk again.

This is wasteful IO. I should be able to pass MimePart a string and encoding type directly.
