The PHTMLMailer component is used to send encrypted and/or signed HTML-formatted emails with or without any attachments using OpenPGP.

Syntax

TipgPHTMLMailer

Remarks

The PHTMLMailer component offers an easy-to-use interface that supports decrypting and verifying signatures of encrypted and signed emails using OpenPGP. It enables you to create messages bound for multiple recipients with different keys, simultaneously encrypt and compress with the most popular compression algorithms, and control other aspects such as the encrypting algorithm to use.

Construct the Message

To begin specify common email properties such as SendTo, Cc, BCc, Subject, and MessageText. Connection information is specified by setting MailServer and MailPort.

Encrypt

To encrypt a message specify a recipient key using the RecipientKey* properties. For instance: PHTMLMailer1.RecipientKeyCount = 1 PHTMLMailer1.RecipientKeyKeyring(0) = "c:\my_keyring_dir" PHTMLMailer1.RecipientKeyUserId(0) = "recipient@nsoftware.com" The specified public key will be used to encrypt the message when Encrypt is called.

Sign

To sign a message specify a recipient key using the Key* properties. For instance: PHTMLMailer1.KeyCount = 1 PHTMLMailer1.KeyKeyring(0) = "c:\my_keyring_dir" PHTMLMailer1.KeyUserId(0) = "sender@nsoftware.com" PHTMLMailer1.KeyPassphrase(0) = "password" The specified private key will be used to sign the message when Sign is called.

Sign and Encrypt

To both sign and encrypt a message call SignAndEncrypt. The message will be signed with the private keys specified in the Key* properties and encrypted with the public keys defined in the RecipientKeys* properties.

Add Attachments

To add attachments simply call AddAttachment. The ProcessAttachments setting specifies whether attachments are also encrypted and signed.

Send

Once all the appropriate properties have been set call the Send method and the message will be sent to its intended recipient(s).

Data Type

String

KeyUserId Property (PHTMLMailer Component)

The user Id of the key.

Syntax

__property String KeyUserId[int KeyIndex] = { read=FKeyUserId, write=FSetKeyUserId };

Default Value

""

Remarks

The user Id of the key. When a key is loaded this property is populated with the user Id associated with the key. This property may be set to load a key from the Keyring. When this property is set the component will search the Keyring for a key associated with the UserId specified.

When loading a key with multiple user Ids, this property will be populated with the UserId that was most recently added to the key. To discover all of the UserIds associated with a key query this property and KeyOtherUserIds after loading the key.

The UserId format is:

FirstName LastName (Comment) <Email>
Not all values are required when selecting or generating a key, but at least FirstName or Email are required.

When using this property to select a key you may also specify the key's Id, or any of its subkeys' Ids, instead of a user Id. The component will then search for a key with a matching Id. This is helpful in situations where you do not have the UserId but still need to load the key, such as within the OpenPGP component's RecipientInfo event.

The KeyIndex parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the KeyCount property.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

String

LastReply Property (PHTMLMailer Component)

This property is read-only.

Data Type

String

LocalHost Property (PHTMLMailer Component)

The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.

Syntax

__property String LocalHost = { read=FLocalHost, write=FSetLocalHost };

Default Value

""

Remarks

The LocalHost property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the component initiate connections (or accept in the case of server components) only through that interface.

If the component is connected, the LocalHost property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

NOTE: LocalHost is not persistent. You must always set it in code, and never in the property window.

Data Type

String

MailPort Property (PHTMLMailer Component)

Syntax

__property String MailServer = { read=FMailServer, write=FSetMailServer };

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property specifies the IP address (IP number in dotted internet format) or Domain Name for a mail relay through which messages will be routed. It is set before a connection is attempted and cannot be changed once a connection is in progress.

The current version of the component does not provide a default value for the mail relay. You must provide a host name yourself. Generally, any internet host with an SMTP server will suffice (a UNIX host for example), but it is preferable to select a MailServer that is close to the machine sending mail.

If this property is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated and upon successful termination of the request, this property is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.

If the component is configured to use a SOCKS firewall, the value assigned to this property may be preceded with an "*". If this is the case, the host name is passed to the firewall unresolved and the firewall performs the DNS resolution.

Data Type

String

MessageDate Property (PHTMLMailer Component)

Date of the mail message (optional).

Syntax

__property String MessageDate = { read=FMessageDate, write=FSetMessageDate };

23 (cstPKCS11)The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface.

To use a security key, the necessary data must first be collected using the CertMgr component. The ListStoreCertificates method may be called after setting CertStoreType to cstPKCS11, CertStorePassword to the PIN, and CertStore to the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL. The certificate information returned in the CertList event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate, pass the previously saved security key information as the SSLCertStore and set SSLCertStorePassword to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key: certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; //PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

99 (cstAuto)The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:

FieldMeaning
CNCommon Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com.

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The SSLServerCertStore and SSLServerCertSubject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

When SSLServerCertEncoded is set, a search is initiated in the current SSLServerCertStore for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, SSLServerCertSubject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, SSLServerCertSubject is set to an empty string.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Byte Array

SSLStartMode Property (PHTMLMailer Component)

Determines how the component starts the SSL negotiation.

Syntax

__property TipgPHTMLMailerSSLStartModes SSLStartMode = { read=FSSLStartMode, write=FSetSSLStartMode };
enum TipgPHTMLMailerSSLStartModes { sslAutomatic=0, sslImplicit=1, sslExplicit=2, sslNone=3 };

Default Value

sslNone

Remarks

The SSLStartMode property may have one of the following values:

0 (sslAutomatic)If the remote port is set to the standard plaintext port of the protocol (where applicable), the component will behave the same as if SSLStartMode is set to sslExplicit. In all other cases, SSL negotiation will be implicit (sslImplicit).
1 (sslImplicit)The SSL negotiation will start immediately after the connection is established.
2 (sslExplicit)The component will first connect in plaintext, and then explicitly start SSL negotiation through a protocol command such as STARTTLS.
3 (sslNone - default)No SSL negotiation, no SSL security. All communication will be in plaintext mode.

Data Type

Integer

Subject Property (PHTMLMailer Component)

The subject of the mail message (optional).

Syntax

__property String Subject = { read=FSubject, write=FSetSubject };

Default Value

""

Remarks

The string in this property is sent with a Subject SMTP header to the mail recipient.

If the resulting header is longer than MaxHeaderLength, then it is folded according to RFC 822 specifications.

Data Type

String

Timeout Property (PHTMLMailer Component)

A timeout for the component.

Syntax

__property int Timeout = { read=FTimeout, write=FSetTimeout };

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, the component will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The component will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not "freeze" and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the component raises an exception.

Please note that by default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, i.e. the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

Data Type

Integer

User Property (PHTMLMailer Component)

A user identifier to login as in the MailServer .

Syntax

__property String User = { read=FUser, write=FSetUser };

Default Value

""

Remarks

If this property is set to a non-empty string, then when connecting to the MailServer an AUTH or CRAM-MD5 (depending on the value of AuthMechanism) command is sent in order to provide authentication information for the user.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

String

AddAttachment Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

This adds FileName as an attachment.

Syntax

void __fastcall AddAttachment(String FileName);

Remarks

This method adds the file name as an attachment. The full list of attachments is contained in the Attachments property.

Example 1: Adding an Attachment

component.AddAttachment("C:\file1.zip"); component.AddAttachment("C:\file2.zip"); component.Send(); Example 3: Using an Attachments Array

component.AttachmentCount = 1; component.AttachmentName(0) = "name"; component.AttachmentFile(0) = "C:\file.txt";

Config Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

String __fastcall Config(String ConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

Connect Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

This method connects to the mail relay and sends the SMTP HELO command.

Syntax

void __fastcall Connect();

Remarks

This method connects to the mail relay and sends the SMTP HELO command, thus preparing to send messages. Any number of messages can later be sent using the Send method.

Example. Connecting and Sending an Email:

control.MailServer = "MyServer" control.From = "me@server.com" control.SendTo = "recipient@server.com" control.Subject = "My Subject" control.MessageText = "This is the message body" control.Connect() control.Send() control.Disconnect()

Disconnect Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

This method disconnects from the SMTP server.

Syntax

void __fastcall Disconnect();

Remarks

This method disconnects from the mail relay.

DoEvents Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

Processes events from the internal message queue.

Syntax

void __fastcall DoEvents();

Remarks

When DoEvents is called, the component processes any available events. If no events are available, it waits for a preset period of time, and then returns.

Encrypt Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

Encrypts the message.

Syntax

void __fastcall Encrypt();

Remarks

This method encrypts the specified message.

The message is encrypted with the public keys specified in the RecipientKey* properties.

When encrypting, the following properties may be used to further configure the component:

Interrupt Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

Interrupt the current method.

Syntax

void __fastcall Interrupt();

Remarks

If there is no method in progress, Interrupt simply returns, doing nothing.

ProcessQueue Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

Sends the messages which have previously been queued into QueueDir .

Syntax

void __fastcall ProcessQueue(String QueueDir);

Remarks

This method sends the messages which have previously been queued into QueueDir. The PITrail event shows the interaction with the server as messages as are processed.

This method looks in the directory for files with extension ".queued" and starts processing them.

When processing starts, the file extension is changed to ".sending". If an error happens at this stage, the sending process is aborted, and the file extension is changed to ".failed".

If the file is successfully sent, the file is normally deleted, unless the KeepQueue configuration setting is set to True, in which case the file extension is instead changed to ".sent" and the queue file is not deleted.

Queue Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

Queues the message into QueueDir .

Syntax

String __fastcall Queue(String QueueDir);

Remarks

This method queues the message into QueueDir. The message is queued into a unique file into the directory QueueDir for future processing.

QueueDir must already exist, or an error will be generated. Alternatively, QueueDir may be set to "*" to return the result as a string instead of writing it to a file.

The method returns the name of the unique queue file created in QueueDir. The file extension is ".queued".

Please refer to the ProcessQueue method for more information on email queue processing.

ResetHeaders Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

Resets all the message headers to empty.

Syntax

void __fastcall ResetHeaders();

Remarks

This method resets all the message headers to "" (empty string). Use this method before creating a new message, so that headers from the previous message are not carried over to the next one.

Send Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

This method sends the current message and MIME-encoded attachment.

Syntax

void __fastcall Send();

Remarks

This method sends the current message and MIME-encoded attachment. If the component is not connected to the mail relay, a connection is created, the message is sent, and then the connection is closed unless an error occurs.

If the component is already connected (by use of the Connect method), the connection will remain open after the message is sent. To disconnect, call the Disconnect method.

Example. Send an HTML Email:

HTMLMailerControl.MailServer = "myserver" HTMLMailerControl.SendTo = "recipient@myserver.com" HTMLMailerControl.From = "me@myserver.com" HTMLMailerControl.Subject = "My Subject" HTMLMailerControl.MessageHTML = "<b>Hello</b>, my name is <i>Tom</i>" HTMLMailerControl.Send

Sign Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

Signs the message.

Syntax

void __fastcall Sign();

Remarks

This method signs the specified message.

The message is signed with the private key specified in the Key* properties.

When signing, the following properties may be used to further configure the component:

SignAndEncrypt Method (PHTMLMailer Component)

Signs and encrypts the current message.

Syntax

void __fastcall SignAndEncrypt();

Remarks

This method signs and encrypts the specified message.

The message is encrypted with the public keys specified in the RecipientKey* properties and signed with the private key specified in the Key* properties.

When encrypting, the following properties may be used to further configure the component:

When signing, the following properties may be used to further configure the component:

  String ConnectionEvent;
  int StatusCode;
  String Description;
} TipgPHTMLMailerConnectionStatusEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TipgPHTMLMailerConnectionStatusEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TipgPHTMLMailerConnectionStatusEventParams *e);
__property TipgPHTMLMailerConnectionStatusEvent OnConnectionStatus = { read=FOnConnectionStatus, write=FOnConnectionStatus };

Remarks

The ConnectionStatus event is fired when the connection state changes: for example, completion of a firewall or proxy connection or completion of a security handshake.

The ConnectionEvent parameter indicates the type of connection event. Values may include the following:

Firewall connection complete.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or S/Shell handshake complete (where applicable).
Remote host connection complete.
Remote host disconnected.
SSL or S/Shell connection broken.
Firewall host disconnected.
StatusCode has the error code returned by the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. Description contains a description of this code. The value of StatusCode is equal to the value of the error.

EndTransfer Event (PHTMLMailer Component)

This event is fired when the message text completes transferring.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int Direction;
} TipgPHTMLMailerEndTransferEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TipgPHTMLMailerEndTransferEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TipgPHTMLMailerEndTransferEventParams *e);
__property TipgPHTMLMailerEndTransferEvent OnEndTransfer = { read=FOnEndTransfer, write=FOnEndTransfer };

Remarks

If MessageText is not empty, the EndTransfer event is fired when the MessageText finishes transferring from the local host to the MailServer. If MessageText is empty, the event is not fired.

If a file is attached to the MessageText via the AttachedFile property, then EndTransfer fires again when the file finishes transferring. For more information, go to the description of the AttachedFile property.

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

Error Event (PHTMLMailer Component)

Information about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int ErrorCode;
  String Description;
} TipgPHTMLMailerErrorEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TipgPHTMLMailerErrorEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TipgPHTMLMailerErrorEventParams *e);
__property TipgPHTMLMailerErrorEvent OnError = { read=FOnError, write=FOnError };

Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the component raises an exception.

The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

KeyPassphrase Event (PHTMLMailer Component)

Fired if the passphrase of current key is incorrect or empty.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String UserId;
  String KeyId;
  String Passphrase;
} TipgPHTMLMailerKeyPassphraseEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TipgPHTMLMailerKeyPassphraseEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TipgPHTMLMailerKeyPassphraseEventParams *e);
__property TipgPHTMLMailerKeyPassphraseEvent OnKeyPassphrase = { read=FOnKeyPassphrase, write=FOnKeyPassphrase };

Remarks

This event fires when the passphrase for the key is required. The passphrase must be specified before operations requiring the secret key are attempted. The passphrase may be supplied by setting the Passphrase parameter in this event, or by specifying the KeyPassphrase property before attempting the operation.

The passphrase is required when using the following methods in KeyMgr:

  • AddUserId
  • SignUserId
  • ChangeExpirationDate
  • ChangePassphrase

When using the OpenPGP component, or an email-based component, the following methods require a passphrase for the key:

PITrail Event (PHTMLMailer Component)

Traces the commands sent to the mail server, and the respective replies.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int Direction;
  String Message;
} TipgPHTMLMailerPITrailEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TipgPHTMLMailerPITrailEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TipgPHTMLMailerPITrailEventParams *e);
__property TipgPHTMLMailerPITrailEvent OnPITrail = { read=FOnPITrail, write=FOnPITrail };

Remarks

The PITrail event is useful for debugging purposes. It shows all the interaction between the client and the server, line by line, except for message header and body transfers.

The Message parameter contains the full text of the message. The Direction parameter shows the originator of the message:

0 (Client)The Message originates from the client.
1 (Server)The Message originates from the server.
2 (Info)The Message is an informative message originating from the client software (the component code).

Progress Event (PHTMLMailer Component)

Fired as progress is made.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  __int64 BytesProcessed;
  int PercentProcessed;
} TipgPHTMLMailerProgressEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TipgPHTMLMailerProgressEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TipgPHTMLMailerProgressEventParams *e);
__property TipgPHTMLMailerProgressEvent OnProgress = { read=FOnProgress, write=FOnProgress };

Remarks

This event is fired automatically as data is processed by the component.

The PercentProcessed parameter indicates the current status of the operation.

The BytesProcessed parameter holds the total number of bytes processed so far.

SSLServerAuthentication Event (PHTMLMailer Component)

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String CertEncoded;
  DynamicArray<Byte> CertEncodedB;
  String CertSubject;
  String CertIssuer;
  String Status;
  bool Accept;
} TipgPHTMLMailerSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TipgPHTMLMailerSSLServerAuthenticationEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TipgPHTMLMailerSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e);
__property TipgPHTMLMailerSSLServerAuthenticationEvent OnSSLServerAuthentication = { read=FOnSSLServerAuthentication, write=FOnSSLServerAuthentication };

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

SSLStatus Event (PHTMLMailer Component)

Shows the progress of the secure connection.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String Message;
} TipgPHTMLMailerSSLStatusEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TipgPHTMLMailerSSLStatusEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TipgPHTMLMailerSSLStatusEventParams *e);
__property TipgPHTMLMailerSSLStatusEvent OnSSLStatus = { read=FOnSSLStatus, write=FOnSSLStatus };

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.

StartTransfer Event (PHTMLMailer Component)

Fired when the message text starts transferring.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int Direction;
} TipgPHTMLMailerStartTransferEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TipgPHTMLMailerStartTransferEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TipgPHTMLMailerStartTransferEventParams *e);
__property TipgPHTMLMailerStartTransferEvent OnStartTransfer = { read=FOnStartTransfer, write=FOnStartTransfer };

Remarks

If MessageText is not empty, the StartTransfer event is fired when the MessageText starts transferring from the local host to the MailServer. If MessageText is empty, the event is not fired.

If a file is attached to the MessageText via the AttachedFile property, then StartTransfer fires again when the file starts transferring. Please go to the description of the AttachedFile property for more information.

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

Status Event (PHTMLMailer Component)

Shows the progress of the operation.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String Message;
} TipgPHTMLMailerStatusEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TipgPHTMLMailerStatusEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TipgPHTMLMailerStatusEventParams *e);
__property TipgPHTMLMailerStatusEvent OnStatus = { read=FOnStatus, write=FOnStatus };

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. It may be used to track the progress of an operation.

The level of detail is controlled by the LogLevel setting.

Transfer Event (PHTMLMailer Component)

Fired while the message text gets transferred to MailServer .

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int Direction;
  __int64 BytesTransferred;
  int PercentDone;
  String Text;
  DynamicArray<Byte> TextB;
} TipgPHTMLMailerTransferEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TipgPHTMLMailerTransferEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TipgPHTMLMailerTransferEventParams *e);
__property TipgPHTMLMailerTransferEvent OnTransfer = { read=FOnTransfer, write=FOnTransfer };

Remarks

One or more Transfer events are fired during message delivery. Messages consist of MessageText and an optional AttachedFile. The BytesTransferred parameter shows the number of bytes sent starting from the beginning of MessageText and/or AttachedFile.

Text contains the current portion of the message being sent.

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

The PercentDone parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If PercentDone can not be calculated the value will be -1.

Note: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.

Config Settings (PHTMLMailer Component)

The component accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

PHTMLMailer Config Settings

ClearSignature:   Specifies whether or not to create a cleartext signature.

This setting controls whether or not a cleartext signature is created during signing. The default value is True. When set to True a cleartext signature will be created when Sign is called.

Note: some mail applications such as GpgOL cannot process cleartext signatures.

Comment:   The OpenPGP message comment.

OpenPGP messages may contain a comment. A comment may optionally be set before calling Encrypt, Sign, or SignAndEncrypt.

CompressionLevel:   The level of compression used.

This setting specifies the level of compression used: possible values depend on the value of CompressionMethod and are detailed below.

zlib 1-6
zip 1-6
bzip21-9
Higher values will cause the component to compress better; lower values will cause the component to compress faster. The default value for all methods is 4.
EnsureValidDSASignatureHashAlgorithm:   Whether or not to select a suitable signature hash algorithm automatically.

This setting specifies whether the component ensures a valid hash algorithm is selected for use with the loaded DSA or ECDSA key. The default value is True.

DSA Notes

DSA requires that the hash be 160 bits or larger, which means MD5 is not a suitable algorithm. When DSA Signature Hash Algorithm selection is enabled (default) the component will use the preferred algorithm from the key if it meets the requirements for DSA. If the preferred algorithm is MD5 and does not meed the requirements for DSA the component will automatically use a suitable algorithm based on the Q element of the DSA key (may be SHA1, SHA224, or SHA256).

ECDSA Notes

The ECDSA Signature Hash Algorithm requirements are directly related to the KeyCurve used by the key. When this setting is enabled (default) the component will use the preferred algorithm from the key if it meets the requirements for ECDSA. If the preferred algorithm does not meet the requirements the component will automatically select a valid hash algorithm based on the curve as follows:

CurveHash Algorithm
secp256r1 SHA256
secp384r1 SHA384
secp521r1 SHA512
secp256k1 SHA256

LogLevel:   Specifies the level of detail that is logged.

This setting controls the level of detail that is logged through the Status event. Possible values are:

0 (None)No events are logged.
1 (Info - default)Informational events are logged.
2 (Verbose)Detailed data is logged.
3 (Debug)Debug data is logged.
ProcessAttachments:   Whether or not to process attachments.

This setting controls whether attachments are processed when calling Encrypt, Sign, or SignAndEncrypt. If set to True the attachments will also be encrypted and/or signed. If set to False the attachments will be added to the message with no additional processing. The default value is False.

SymmetricPassphrase:   The password used for symmetric encryption or decryption.

This setting specifies the passphrase when using symmetric encryption. If a value is provided, symmetric encryption/decryption will be attempted. In this case no keys are used for either encryption or decryption. Only Encrypt and Decrypt are valid operations when a value is set. Sign, SignAndEncrypt, VerifySignature, and DecryptAndVerifySignature are not valid operations when using this option.

VersionHeader:   The Version header value in the ASCII armored OpenPGP message.

This setting specifies the Version header value included in the ASCII armored OpenPGP message. This may be set before calling Encrypt, Sign, or SignAndEncrypt. The default value is "IPWorks! OpenPGP 2022".

This setting will be populated after calling Decrypt, VerifySignature, or DecryptAndVerifySignature.

HTMLMailer Config Settings

AttachmentEncoding[index]:   Content-Transfer-Encoding for attached file (at index).

This configuration setting allows you to set the Content-Transfer-Encoding for each attached file in the Attachments array property. Valid array indices are from 0 to AttachmentCount -1. When set to one of the following integer values, the attachment will be encoded using the specified encoding. The following encodings are supported:

07-bit
1Quoted-Printable
2Base64
38-bit
AttachmentText[index]:   Add the text into the attachment at the specified index.

If this is set, text will be added into the attachment at the specified index. All data entered must be hex-encoded data. The component will then decode the hex-encoded data and insert the data into the attachment.

AttachmentType[index]:   Content-type for attached file (at index).

This configuration setting allows you to set the Content-Type for each attached file in the Attachments array property. Valid array indices are from 0 to AttachmentCount -1. To set the Content-Type for the attachment at index 2, you would set the string "AttachmentType[2]=application/octet-stream".

Charset:   When set, the charset Content-Type attribute will be added using the specified value.

This property is used to specify the "charset" Content-Type attribute for both the HTML (MessageHTML) and plain text (MessageText) part headers. The default value is "" (empty string) in which case the charset attribute will not be added to the Content-Type header.

ExcludeTags:   Specifies tags that will be excluded when calculating MessageText.

This property can be used to specify tags that will be excluded when the component calculates MessageText after MessageHTML has been set. Set this to a comma-separated list of tags, like "script,style". The default value is an empty string, so all tags will be included in MessageText.

MessageTextEncoding:   When set, the MessageHTML and MessageText values will be encoded using the specified encoding.

When set to one of the following integer values, both the MessageHTML and MessageText properties will be encoded using the specified encoding. The "Content-Transfer-Encoding" header will also be set for both the HTML and plain text parts. The following encodings are supported:

07-bit
1Quoted-Printable
2Base64
38-bit
OverrideFilename:   If set to true, the AttachmentName property value will be used to set the MIME part Filename attribute.

When set to True, the AttachmentName value specified will be used to set the Filename attribute of the Content-Disposition header. The default value is False, in which case, the component will use the same name as the file being added.

TempFilePath:   If set, the temporary files created during message creation will be put in the path specified.

The TempFilePath configuration sets the path at which the temporary files will be created.

UseTempFile:   Determines if temporary files are used during message creation.

When True, the component will create temporary files on disk at the path specified by TempFilePath as necessary during message creation. Set this to False, to disable the creation of temporary files. When set to False, the message will be created entirely in memory. The default value is True. If set, the component uses temporary files when generating messages.

This controls whether or not the component will use a temporary file when creating messages to be sent. Set this to True if the outgoing message contains large images or attachments.

Note: Be aware of security considerations when using this configuration.

SMTP Config Settings

AllowEmptyTo:   If set to True, then the SendTo property is not required.

Normally, the SendTo property is required to send a message. If AllowEmptyTo is True, then this is not the case, and messages can be sent with just one or both of Cc and BCc set.

AuthorizationIdentity:   The value to use as the authorization identity when SASL authentication is used.

When AuthMechanism is set to amXOAUTH2 you may use this setting to specify an authorization identity to be used when authenticating. In the case of amXOAUTH2, this should be your OAUTH authorization string. For instance:

Bearer ya29.AHES6ZRmS-8xPbpGetC1VbABJIBRdKm-c4X7wMVGAbgxdGt5q8Ts3Q

Note: When using amXOAUTH2, User must be specified, but Password is not required.

Charset:   When set, the message headers will be encoded using the specified Charset.

This property is used to specify the "charset" to be used to encode the message headers. For example, to use UTF-8 you can set this property to "UTF-8". The default value is "" (empty string) in which case the headers will not be encoded.

Hello:   The argument for HELO (herald) command to the server (defaults to local host name).

The Hello property specifies a string to send to the MailServer at connection time as an argument to the SMTP HELO command. This generally identifies the host sending mail, and that's why the Hello property defaults to the name of the local host. The property is provided in case the component does not accept the default value and a custom value (such as, for example, a fully qualified domain name) must be sent.

If AllowExtensions is True the EHLO command will be sent instead of the HELO command.

KeepQueue:   If set to True, queued files are not deleted after a successful send.

Normally, ProcessQueue deletes queued files after processing them. If KeepQueue is True, the file extension is instead changed to ".sent" and the files are not deleted.

MaxHeaderLength:   Maximum length for headers to avoid line folding (default 80).

The MaxHeaderLength specifies the maximum line length supported by the mail delivery system. Any headers longer than MaxHeaderLength are folded as specified in RFC 822.

It is generally a good idea to use a MaxHeaderLength of less than 100 bytes, although different mail relays and mail servers have different requirements for header lengths.

MessageHeadersString:   String representation of RFC822-encoded headers of the message.

This setting holds the full headers of the message in RFC822 format. Use this along with TransferText to store the entire message in RFC822 format.

As an example: smtp1.Send(); string rawMsg = smtp1.Config("MessageHeadersString") + smtp1.Config("TransferText");

MessageIdAlgorithm:   Determines the algorithm used to hash the random MessageId.

The MessageIdAlgorithm specifies which algorithm to use in the hash for the MessageId when the property is set to "*". The default value is "SHA1".

Possible values are:

  • "MD5"
  • "SHA1" (default)
  • "SHA256"

OtherHeaders:   An RFC 822 compliant string consisting of extra headers.

This is the same as the OtherHeaders property. This setting is exposed here for use by components that inherit from SMTP.

ReturnPath:   Sets the Return-Path to be used for sending email.

This is the same as the ReturnPath property. This setting is exposed here for use by components that inherit from SMTP.

SendRSET:   Whether to send RSET command.

By default, the component will periodically send the RSET command to the server. Changing this configuration setting to False will prevent the RSET command from being sent. This can be useful when interacting with some servers that do not respond properly to the RSET command.

StopOnBccErrors:   Instructs the component to stop sending the message if the server does not acknowledge any of the BCCs.

If this setting is set to True, the component will fail the moment the server does not acknowledge a Bcc address. If set to False, an error will be fired for every Bcc that is not recognized by the server, but the message will be sent to the rest of the recipients. The default value is False.

StopOnCcErrors:   Instructs the component to stop sending the message if the server does not acknowledge any of the CCs.

If this setting is set to True, the component will fail the moment the server does not acknowledge a Cc address. If set to False, an error will be fired for every Cc that is not recognized by the server, but the message will be sent to the rest of the recipients. The default value is True.

StopOnToErrors:   Instructs the component to stop sending the message if the server does not acknowledge any of the TOs.

If this setting is set to True, the component will fail the moment the server does not acknowledge a To address. If set to False, an error will be fired for every To that is not recognized by the server, but the message will be sent to the rest of the recipients. The default value is True.

TransferText:   String representation of RFC822-encoded body of the message.

This setting holds the full body of the message in RFC822 format. Use this along with MessageHeadersString to store the entire message in RFC822 format.

As an example: smtp1.Send(); string rawMsg = smtp1.Config("MessageHeadersString") + smtp1.Config("TransferText");

TCPClient Config Settings

ConnectionTimeout:   Sets a separate timeout value for establishing a connection.

When set, this configuration setting allows you to specify a different timeout value for establishing a connection. Otherwise, the component will use Timeout for establishing a connection and transmitting/receiving data.

FirewallAutoDetect:   Tells the component whether or not to automatically detect and use firewall system settings, if available.

This configuration setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallHost:   Name or IP address of firewall (optional).

If a FirewallHost is given, requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting.

If the FirewallHost setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the FirewallHost setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.

Note: This setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallPassword:   Password to be used if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall.

If FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword settings are used to connect and authenticate to the given firewall. If the authentication fails, the component raises an exception.

Note: This setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallPort:   The TCP port for the FirewallHost;.

The FirewallPort is set automatically when FirewallType is set to a valid value.

Note: This configuration setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallType:   Determines the type of firewall to connect through.

The appropriate values are as follows:

0No firewall (default setting).
1Connect through a tunneling proxy. FirewallPort is set to 80.
2Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
3Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
10Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.

Note: This setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallUser:   A user name if authentication is to be used connecting through a firewall.

If the FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword settings are used to connect and authenticate to the Firewall. If the authentication fails, the component raises an exception.

Note: This setting is provided for use by components that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

KeepAliveInterval:   The retry interval, in milliseconds, to be used when a TCP keep-alive packet is sent and no response is received.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity as defined by KeepAliveTime. If no acknowledgment is received from the remote host, the keep-alive packet will be sent again. This configuration setting specifies the interval at which the successive keep-alive packets are sent in milliseconds. This system default if this value is not specified here is 1 second.

Note: This value is not applicable in macOS.

KeepAliveTime:   The inactivity time in milliseconds before a TCP keep-alive packet is sent.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. By default, the operating system will determine the time a connection is idle before a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) keep-alive packet is sent. This system default if this value is not specified here is 2 hours. In many cases, a shorter interval is more useful. Set this value to the desired interval in milliseconds.

Linger:   When set to True, connections are terminated gracefully.

This property controls how a connection is closed. The default is True.

In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if LingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.

In the second scenario, if LingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified LingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.

The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the component returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).

Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.

LingerTime:   Time in seconds to have the connection linger.

LingerTime is the time, in seconds, the socket connection will linger. This value is 0 by default, which means it will use the default IP timeout.

LocalHost:   The name of the local host through which connections are initiated or accepted.

The LocalHost setting contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the component initiate connections (or accept in the case of server components) only through that interface.

If the component is connected, the LocalHost setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

LocalPort:   The port in the local host where the component binds.

This must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the component to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by LocalPort after the connection is established.

LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.

This; setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port in the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.

MaxLineLength:   The maximum amount of data to accumulate when no EOL is found.

MaxLineLength is the size of an internal buffer, which holds received data while waiting for an EOL string.

If an EOL string is found in the input stream before MaxLineLength bytes are received, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.

If no EOL is found, and MaxLineLength bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.

The minimum value for MaxLineLength is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

MaxTransferRate:   The transfer rate limit in bytes per second.

This configuration setting can be used to throttle outbound TCP traffic. Set this to the number of bytes to be sent per second. By default, this is not set and there is no limit.

ProxyExceptionsList:   A semicolon separated list of hosts and IPs to bypass when using a proxy.

This configuration setting optionally specifies a semicolon-separated list of hostnames or IP addresses to bypass when a proxy is in use. When requests are made to hosts specified in this property, the proxy will not be used. For instance:

www.google.com;www.nsoftware.com

TCPKeepAlive:   Determines whether or not the keep alive socket option is enabled.

If set to True, the socket's keep-alive option is enabled and keep-alive packets will be sent periodically to maintain the connection. Set KeepAliveTime and KeepAliveInterval to configure the timing of the keep-alive packets.

Note: This value is not applicable in Java.

TcpNoDelay:   Whether or not to delay when sending packets.

When true, the socket will send all data that is ready to send at once. When false, the socket will send smaller buffered packets of data at small intervals. This is known as the Nagle algorithm.

By default, this config is set to false.

UseIPv6:   Whether to use IPv6.

When set to 0 (default), the component will use IPv4 exclusively. When set to 1, the component will use IPv6 exclusively. To instruct the component to prefer IPv6 addresses, but use IPv4 if IPv6 is not supported on the system, this setting should be set to 2. The default value is 0. Possible values are:

0 IPv4 Only
1 IPv6 Only
2 IPv6 with IPv4 fallback

SSL Config Settings

LogSSLPackets:   Controls whether SSL packets are logged when using the internal security API.

When SSLProvider is set to Internal, this setting controls whether SSL packets should be logged. By default, this setting is False, as it is only useful for debugging purposes.

When enabled, SSL packet logs are output using the SSLStatus event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.

Enabling this setting has no effect if SSLProvider is set to Platform.

OpenSSLCADir:   The path to a directory containing CA certificates.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The path set by this property should point to a directory containing CA certificates in PEM format. The files each contain one CA certificate. The files are looked up by the CA subject name hash value, which must hence be available. If more than one CA certificate with the same name hash value exist, the extension must be different (e.g. 9d66eef0.0, 9d66eef0.1 etc). OpenSSL recommends to use the c_rehash utility to create the necessary links. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

OpenSSLCAFile:   Name of the file containing the list of CA's trusted by your application.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The file set by this property should contain a list of CA certificates in PEM format. The file can contain several CA certificates identified by

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

... (CA certificate in base64 encoding) ...

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

sequences. Before, between, and after the certificates text is allowed which can be used e.g. for descriptions of the certificates. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

OpenSSLCipherList:   A string that controls the ciphers to be used by SSL.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The format of this string is described in the OpenSSL man page ciphers(1) section "CIPHER LIST FORMAT". Please refer to it for details. The default string "DEFAULT" is determined at compile time and is normally equivalent to "ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+SSLv2:@STRENGTH".

OpenSSLPrngSeedData:   The data to seed the pseudo random number generator (PRNG).

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

By default OpenSSL uses the device file "/dev/urandom" to seed the PRNG and setting OpenSSLPrngSeedData is not required. If set, the string specified is used to seed the PRNG.

ReuseSSLSession:   Determines if the SSL session is reused.

If set to true, the component will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:

  • The target host name is the same.
  • The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
  • The application process that calls the function is the same.
  • The logon session is the same.
  • The instance of the component is the same.

SSLCACerts:   A newline separated list of CA certificate to use during SSL client authentication.

This setting specifies one or more CA certificates to be included in the request when performing SSL client authentication. Some servers require the entire chain, including CA certificates, to be presented when performing SSL client authentication. The value of this setting is a newline (CrLf) separated list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w
F0I1XhM+pKj7FjDr+XNj
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
\r \n
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEFjCCAv6gAwIBAgIQetu1SMxpnENAnnOz1P+PtTANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADBp
..
d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

SSLCheckCRL:   Whether to check the Certificate Revocation List for the server certificate.

This setting specifies whether the component will check the Certificate Revocation List specified by the server certificate. If set to 1 or 2, the component will first obtain the list of CRL URLs from the server certificate's CRL distribution points extension. The component will then make HTTP requests to each CRL endpoint to check the validity of the server's certificate. If the certificate has been revoked or any other issues are found during validation the component raises an exception.

When set to 0 (default) the CRL check will not be performed by the component. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the CRL check, but will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support CRL. When set to 2, it will perform the CRL check and will throw an error if CRL is not supported.

This configuration setting is only supported in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is only supported on Windows operating systems.

SSLCheckOCSP:   Whether to use OCSP to check the status of the server certificate.

This setting specifies whether the component will use OCSP to check the validity of the server certificate. If set to 1 or 2, the component will first obtain the OCSP URL from the server certificate's OCSP extension. The component will then locate the issuing certificate and make an HTTP request to the OCSP endpoint to check the validity of the server's certificate. If the certificate has been revoked or any other issues are found during validation the component raises an exception.

When set to 0 (default) the component will not perform an OCSP check. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the OCSP check, but will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support OCSP. When set to 2, it will perform the OCSP check and will throw an error if OCSP is not supported.

This configuration setting is only supported in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is only supported on Windows operating systems.

SSLCipherStrength:   The minimum cipher strength used for bulk encryption.

This minimum cipher strength largely dependent on the security modules installed on the system. If the cipher strength specified is not supported, an error will be returned when connections are initiated.

Please note that this setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library. The actual cipher strength used for the connection is shown by the SSLStatus event.

Use this setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.

When the provider is OpenSSL, SSLCipherStrength is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the OpenSSLCipherList config setting.

SSLEnabledCipherSuites:   The cipher suite to be used in an SSL negotiation.

The enabled cipher suites to be used in SSL negotiation.

By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").

The special value "*" means that the component will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If SSLEnabledCipherSuites is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.

Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.

Example values when SSLProvider is set to Platform: obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256;CALG_3DES"); Possible values when SSLProvider is set to Platform include:

When TLS 1.3 is negotiated (see SSLEnabledProtocols) only the following cipher suites are supported:

  • TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
  • TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
  • TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with SSLCipherStrength.

SSLEnabledProtocols:   Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.

Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.

Not all supported protocols are enabled by default (the value of this setting is 4032). If you want more granular control over the enabled protocols, you can set this property to the binary 'OR' of one or more of the following values:

TLS1.312288 (Hex 3000)
TLS1.23072 (Hex C00) (Default)
TLS1.1768 (Hex 300) (Default)
TLS1 192 (Hex C0) (Default)
SSL3 48 (Hex 30) [Platform Only]
SSL2 12 (Hex 0C) [Platform Only]

SSLEnabledProtocols - TLS 1.3 Notes

By default when TLS 1.3 is enabled the component will use the internal TLS implementation when the SSLProvider is set to Automatic for all editions.

In editions which are designed to run on Windows SSLProvider can be set to Platform to use the platform implementation instead of the internal implementation. When configured in this manner, please note that the platform provider is only supported on Windows 11 / Windows Server 2022 and up. The default internal provider is available on all platforms and is not restricted to any specific OS version.

If set to 1 (Platform provider) please be aware of the following notes:

  • The platform provider is only available on Windows 11 / Windows Server 2022 and up.
  • SSLEnabledCipherSuites and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
  • If SSLEnabledProtocols includes both TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2 the above restrictions are still applicable even if TLS 1.2 is negotiated. Enabling TLS 1.3 with the platform provider changes the implementation used for all TLS versions.

SSLEnabledProtocols: SSL2 and SSL3 Notes:

SSL 2.0 and 3.0 are not supported by the component when the SSLProvider is set to internal. To use SSL 2.0 or SSL 3.0, the platform security API must have the protocols enabled and SSLProvider needs to be set to platform.

SSLEnableRenegotiation:   Whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension is supported.

This setting specifies whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension will be used in the request when using the internal security API. This setting is true by default, but can be set to false to disable the extension.

This setting is only applicable when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

SSLIncludeCertChain:   Whether the entire certificate chain is included in the SSLServerAuthentication event.

This setting specifies whether the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event contains the full certificate chain. By default this value is False and only the leaf certificate will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event.

If set to True all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.

SSLKeyLogFile:   The location of a file where per-session secrets are written for debugging purposes.

This setting optionally specifies the full path to a file on disk where per-session secrets are stored for debugging purposes.

When set, the component will save the session secrets in the same format as the SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable functionality used by most major browsers and tools such as Chrome, Firefox, and cURL. This file can then be used in tools such as Wireshark to decrypt TLS traffice for debugging purposes. When writing to this file the component will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.

Note: This setting is only applicable when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

SSLNegotiatedCipher:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite.

Returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipher[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite strength.

Returns the strength of the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g.TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite.

Returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake represented as a single string.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange:   Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm.

Returns the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength:   Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm strength.

Returns the strenghth of the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedVersion:   Returns the negotiated protocol version.

Returns the protocol version negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedVersion[connId]");

SSLSecurityFlags:   Flags that control certificate verification.

The following flags are defined (specified in hexadecimal notation). They can be or-ed together to exclude multiple conditions:

0x00000001Ignore time validity status of certificate.
0x00000002Ignore time validity status of CTL.
0x00000004Ignore non-nested certificate times.
0x00000010Allow unknown Certificate Authority.
0x00000020Ignore wrong certificate usage.
0x00000100Ignore unknown certificate revocation status.
0x00000200Ignore unknown CTL signer revocation status.
0x00000400Ignore unknown Certificate Authority revocation status.
0x00000800Ignore unknown Root revocation status.
0x00008000Allow test Root certificate.
0x00004000Trust test Root certificate.
0x80000000Ignore non-matching CN (certificate CN not-matching server name).

This functionality is currently not available when the provider is OpenSSL.

SSLServerCACerts:   A newline separated list of CA certificate to use during SSL server certificate validation.

This setting optionally specifies one or more CA certificates to be used when verifying the server certificate. When verifying the server's certificate the certificates trusted by the system will be used as part of the verification process. If the server's CA certificates are not installed to the trusted system store, they may be specified here so they are included when performing the verification process. This setting should only be set if the server's CA certificates are not already trusted on the system and cannot be installed to the trusted system store.

The value of this setting is a newline (CrLf) separated list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

TLS12SignatureAlgorithms:   Defines the allowed TLS 1.2 signature algorithms when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

This setting specifies the allowed server certificate signature algorithms when SSLProvider is set to Internal and SSLEnabledProtocols is set to allow TLS 1.2.

When specified the component will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported the component raises an exception.

The format of this value is a comma separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance: component.SSLProvider = TCPClientSSLProviders.sslpInternal; component.Config("SSLEnabledProtocols=3072"); //TLS 1.2 component.Config("TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa"); The default value for this setting is sha512-ecdsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa,sha384-ecdsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha256-ecdsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha224-ecdsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha1-ecdsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa.

In order to not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.

TLS12SupportedGroups:   The supported groups for ECC.

This setting specifies a comma separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.2 for ECC.

The default value is ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1.

When using TLS 1.2 and SSLProvider is set to Internal, the values refer to the supported groups for ECC. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)

TLS13KeyShareGroups:   The groups for which to pregenerate key shares.

This setting specifies a comma separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. The groups specified here will have key share data pregenerated locally before establishing a connection. This can prevent an additional round trip during the handshake if the group is supported by the server.

The default value is set to balance common supported groups and the computational resources required to generate key shares. As a result only some groups are included by default in this setting.

Note: All supported groups can always be used during the handshake even if not listed here, but if a group is used which is not present in this list it will incur an additional round trip and time to generate the key share for that group.

In most cases this setting does not need to be modified. This should only be modified if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
  • "ecdhe_x448"
  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1"
  • "ffdhe_2048" (default)
  • "ffdhe_3072" (default)
  • "ffdhe_4096"
  • "ffdhe_6144"
  • "ffdhe_8192"

TLS13SignatureAlgorithms:   The allowed certificate signature algorithms.

This setting holds a comma separated list of allowed signature algorithms. Possible values are:

  • "ed25519" (default)
  • "ed448" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha256" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha384" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha512" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha256" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha384" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha512" (default)
The default value is rsa_pss_sha256,rsa_pss_sha384,rsa_pss_sha512,rsa_pkcs1_sha256,rsa_pkcs1_sha384,rsa_pkcs1_sha512,ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256,ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384,ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512,ed25519,ed448. This setting is only applicable when SSLEnabledProtocols includes TLS 1.3.
TLS13SupportedGroups:   The supported groups for (EC)DHE key exchange.

This setting specifies a comma separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. This setting should only be modified if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_x448,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072,ffdhe_4096,ffdhe_6144,ffdhe_8192

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
  • "ecdhe_x448" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)
  • "ffdhe_2048" (default)
  • "ffdhe_3072" (default)
  • "ffdhe_4096" (default)
  • "ffdhe_6144" (default)
  • "ffdhe_8192" (default)

Socket Config Settings

AbsoluteTimeout:   Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts.

If AbsoluteTimeout is set to True, any method which does not complete within Timeout seconds will be aborted. By default, AbsoluteTimeout is False, and the timeout is an inactivity timeout.

Note: This option is not valid for UDP ports.

FirewallData:   Used to send extra data to the firewall.

When the firewall is a tunneling proxy, use this property to send custom (additional) headers to the firewall (e.g. headers for custom authentication schemes).

InBufferSize:   The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be receiving. Increasing the value of the InBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance in some cases.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the component is activated the InBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

OutBufferSize:   The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be sending. Increasing the value of the OutBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance in some cases.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the component is activated the OutBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

Base Config Settings

BuildInfo:   Information about the product's build.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

LicenseInfo:   Information about the current license.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a component is using. It will return the following information:

  • Product: The product the license is for.
  • Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
  • License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
  • License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
  • Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.
MaskSensitive:   Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.

In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to true to mask sensitive data. The default is true.

This setting only works on these components: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer.

UseInternalSecurityAPI:   Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

When set to false, the component will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to true tells the component to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

This setting is set to false by default on all platforms.
