Pop3GetExtensionValue Method
Returns the parameters of the specified POP3 capability, or an empty string if the capability has no parameters.

Namespace: MailBee.Pop3Mail
Assembly: MailBee.NET (in MailBee.NET.dll) Version: 12.4 build 677 for .NET 4.5
Syntax
Copy
public string GetExtensionValue(
	string name
)

Parameters

name
Type: SystemString
The name of the capability. This name is case-insensitive, e.g. pipelining and PIPELINING mean the same.

Return Value

Type: String
If the specified capability is parameterless, the return value is Empty. If the capability has parameters, the return value is a string which contains the parameters list as returned by the server. If the server does not support CAPA command (see GetExtensions for more information) or the given capability is not supported, the return value is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
Exceptions
ExceptionCondition
MailBeeExceptionAn error occurred and ThrowExceptions is true.
Remarks
This method can be used to retrieve additional information about the given capability. However, if you wish to get the list of SASL authentication methods supported by the server, you may also use GetSupportedAuthMethods method for this. GetSupportedAuthMethods method can succeed even if the server does not support CAPA command but supports AUTH command (which is often the case).
Note Note
This method may issue a network operation if the list of supported extensions has not yet been downloaded from the POP3 server. To make sure you have the local copy of the list, call GetExtensions first (or its async version).
