MessageHeadersString Property

String version of headers from the SMIME message.

Syntax

 smime.getMessageHeadersString([callback])
 smime.setMessageHeadersString( messageHeadersString, [callback])

Default Value

""

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getMessageHeadersString([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setMessageHeadersString([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This property contains the string version of headers from the SMIME message. The class fills out this property upon signing and/or encrypting.

The user should use these additional headers when emailing or sending the Message. This can be done by including these headers in the OtherHeaders property of the class that you wish to send the message with.

During decryption or signature verification, this property must contain the headers of the incoming message.

After the decryption or verification, this property contains the headers of the verified or decrypted message.
