Description
-
Holds hostname of connected user.
Property type
-
A String value.
Syntax
-
object.Hostname [= value]
The Hostname Property syntax has these parts:
| object |
An expression evaluating to an object
of type ImapUser. |
| value |
A String value. Holds IP address of
computer where user came from |
Remarks
- Hostname property provides you with IP address of
user's originating computer. Using this value you can
filter incoming connections and allow only specific IP range
or domain that are allowed to connect to your server. Once
user connects and Connecting
event is fired, User.Hostname is already filled with
information and you can test it against some filter of your
choice.
Although Hostname property is expected to be readonly,
it's not. You can write your own value into it in case it
will provide easier accessing them later on. For instance, if
you want to reference range of IPs to some name of your
choice, you can set it up to 'friends' during
Connecting event, and then just test against this value
later, or add 'on-the-fly' new messages to their
mailboxes.
