MessageID Property


Contains the Message-ID of the message.

E.g. if Message-ID header looks like:

Message-ID: <14816287800.20040305185837@localhost>

then MessageID property returns "14816287800.20040305185837@localhost".

Note: Dont't confuse Message-ID (which is a string taken from "Message-ID" message header) with UID (which is unique number assigned to each message in IMAP4 mailbox).


Value Type: String
Parameters: None 
Remarks: This property is read-only

Usage example:

' This sample displays Message-ID for the last message in Inbox
Dim Mailer, Envelopes, Envelope
'Using visual basic to create object
Set Mailer = CreateObject("MailBee.IMAP4")
'Using ASP to create object
'Set Mailer = Server.CreateObject("MailBee.IMAP4")
'In ASP use Response.Write instead of MsgBox
Mailer.EnableLogging = True
Mailer.LogFilePath = "C:\Temp\imap4_log.txt"
Mailer.ClearLog
Mailer.LicenseKey = "put your license key here"
If Mailer.Connect("mailserver.com", 143, "MyName", "MyPassword") Then
  If Mailer.SelectMailbox("Inbox") Then
    Set Envelopes = Mailer.RetrieveEnvelopes(Mailer.MessageCount, Mailer.MessageCount, False)
    If Not Envelopes Is Nothing Then
      For Each Envelope In Envelopes
        MsgBox Envelope.MessageID
      Next
    End If
  End If
  Mailer.Disconnect
End If
