ReturnPath Property


Value of "Return-Path" header (the path back to the message's originator).

If composing the message, you commonly leave this address blank (SMTP servers generate it themselves).

If the message was received using MailBee.POP3 object, the property is value of "Return-Path" header or empty string if this header is missing.


Value Type: String
Parameters: None 

Usage example:

Dim Mailer, Msg
'Using visual basic to create object
Set Mailer = CreateObject("MailBee.POP3")
'Using ASP to create object
'Set Mailer = Server.CreateObject("MailBee.POP3")
'In ASP use Response.Write instead of MsgBox
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)
      If Not Msg Is Nothing Then MsgBox "Return-Path: " & Msg.ReturnPath
   End If
   Mailer.Disconnect
End If
