MessageDirectoryExists Method

Visual Basic Tutorial available! (3 pages)

ASP Tutorial available! (4 pages)

Returns whether the message directory was really created by GetBodyWithEmbeddedObjectsEx or GetBodyWithEmbeddedObjects method call.

GetBodyWithEmbeddedObjects and GetBodyWithEmbeddedObjectsEx methods will not create the message directory if it is not needed. Only if the message contains any embedded objects, the message directory is created.

Another reason of the message directory not been created is when the required path could not be created (for example, there is already file under the given name).

MessageDirectoryPath parameter may be omitted if GetBodyWithEmbeddedObjects or GetBodyWithEmbeddedObjectsEx method has been already called for the same instance of the Message object.

Also, you may use this method for testing any paths for their existence and being directory.

blnResult = ObjectName.MessageDirectoryExists([MessageDirectoryPath])


Parameters:
MessageDirectoryPath As String	(optional) The path to the message directory created by MailBee for the message. If omitted, the path is taken from internal variable that is set by GetBodyWithEmbeddedObjects and GetBodyWithEmbeddedObjectsEx methods

Return value As Boolean	True if the message directory exists and it is a directory (not a file), False otherwise

Usage example:

' VB-only sample (see ASP Tutorial for ASP samples)
Dim Mailer, Msg
Set Mailer = CreateObject("MailBee.POP3")
Mailer.LicenseKey = "put your license key here"
Mailer.Connect "mailserver.com", 110, "MyName", "MyPassword"
If Mailer.Connected Then
   If Mailer.MessageCount > 0 Then
      Set Msg = Mailer.RetrieveSingleMessage(1)
      MsgBox Msg.GetBodyWithEmbeddedObjects(, , )
      MsgBox "Message dir exists? - " & Msg.MessageDirectoryExists
      Msg.RemoveMessageDirectory
   End If
   Mailer.Disconnect
End If
