6.2 Sending a Message
To use the Mailbox library, an application will usually want to include a MailboxSendControl object in its UI.

The settings of the MailboxSendControl will determine what formats the application can use when it sends data. There are a number of standard data types specified by the MailboxSendControl. If you wish to support a new format for transporting data, you must subclass the MailboxSendControl object and add any tools necessary for that new data type. If you wish to provide extra, application specific functionality, you must add tools to the controller yourself. For example, if you are writing a form-collection application, you might wish to add an icon that selects the certain fields of each form, assembles them into a message, and transmits them.
