MessageHeadersString Property

A string representation of the full headers of the message as retrieved from the server.

Syntax

 pop.getMessageHeadersString([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 a string representation of the full headers of the message as retrieved from the server. If the class is not connected, or MessageNumber does not contain a valid message number, the value of this property is an empty string. Otherwise, it contains the full headers of the mail message as reported by the server.

The MailServer is asked about the headers of the message only if the MessageNumber property has changed. If MessageNumber has not changed, the class returns a cached value.

Example (Connect and Retrieve Message)

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

POPControl.MessageNumber = 1
MessageText = POPControl.MessageText
MessageHeadersString = POPControl.MessageHeadersString

This property is read-only.
