StoreMessage Method

Retrieve a message from the server and store it in a local file.

Syntax

object.StoreMessage( MessageNumber, FileName )

Remarks

The StoreMessage method retrieves a message from the server and stores it in a file on the local system. The contents of the message is stored as a text file, using the specified file name. This method will cause the current thread to block until the message transfer completes, a timeout occurs or the transfer is canceled. During the transfer, the OnProgress event will fire periodically, enabling the application to update any user interface objects such as a progress bar.

MessageNumber
Number of message to retrieve. This value must be greater than zero. The first message in the mailbox is message number one.
FileName
Pointer to a null-terminated string which specifies the file that message is to be stored in. If an empty string is passed as an argument, the message is copied to the system clipboard.

Return Value

A value of zero is returned if the method was successful. Otherwise, a non-zero error code is returned which indicates the cause of the failure.
