SUMMARY
=======

The following command sets the message body of message "messageRef" to the
contents of the text string or HyperCard container (variable or field)
referenced by "data":

     msmail(AddBody, messageRef, data)

The main message text field is limited in length to 32K.

"messageRef" is a reference to a selected message obtained by making a call to
the msmail function using a parameter that returns a message reference, such as
getMessageListField.
