Retrieve Method

Retrieves a message specified by MessageNumber from the server.

Syntax

pop.retrieve([callback])

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 this 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 method is used to retrieve a message specified by MessageNumber from the server. It asks the MailServer to retrieve the message specified by MessageNumber. The message headers will arrive in the Header event, and the message text will arrive in the Transfer event.

The MaxLines property defines the number of lines retrieved.

Example (Connect and Retrieve Message)


POPControl.MailServer = "MyPOPServer"
POPControl.User = "username"
POPControl.Password = "password"
POPControl.Connect()

POPControl.MessageNumber = 1
POPControl.Retrieve()
