MessageFrom Property  
 

Return the address of the user who sent the message.

Syntax

object.MessageFrom

Remarks

The MessageFrom property returns the address of the user who sent the current message. This property uses either the XSENDER or the XTND XLST command in order to determine who the sender is. The XSENDER command returns an authenticated address, as used with the Netscape SMTP authentication method. If this command is not supported, or the sender's address was not authenticated, then the XTND XLST command is used to return the value of the "From" header field in the message. If this command is not supported by the server, the method will attempt to retrieve the entire message header and return the value for the specified header field. This enables an application to use this property even if the server does not support command extensions.
