# MessageFileContentType

Specifies the type of file to ingest for the content of an IDOL document that represents a message.

You can set this parameter to one of the following values:

- `UniqueBody` - A text or HTML file containing the body of the message, excluding other messages in the e-mail chain.
- `Body` - A text or HTML file containing the body of the message, including other messages in the e-mail chain. This option is similar to `UniqueBody` but content might be indexed multiple times (in the original message and each time the message is forwarded or replied to).
- `EML` - An `.EML` file containing the entire message, including any attachments. This option requires additional requests to the Exchange API, which increases the time required to synchronize with Exchange.

When you choose `UniqueBody` or `Body`, the connector generates a separate child document for each attachment.
