G4MSLSTMM

The G4MSLSTMM command is used to list and retrieve email messages associated with a specific Microsoft Outlook or Office 365 Account

The following files will be populated after each call.

  • G4MSMHPF - This is the Email Header file. For each message retrieved this file will contain the Microsoft ID, Message ID, and a short snippet of the message

  • G4MSMHHPF - This is the Email Header "Header" file. For each message retrieved this file will contain one entry for each header and the header value associated with the email. Headers are things like subject, to, from, etc.

  • G4MSMHLPF - This is the Email Header "Label" file. For each message retrieved this will contain one or more values that represent the labels associated with that particular message.

  • G4MSMMPF - This is the Email Message file. For each message retrieved there will be a record and the label it was retrieved from.

  • G4MSMBPF - This is the EMail Message Body file. For each email that contains a "body" a record will be added here with a link to the stream file that the body is placed in. Normally a record will only be placed in this file when the email message is a plain text email with no attachments, images or other parts.

  • G4MSMPPF - This is the Email Message "Part" file. When messages are retrieved each piece of it, including attachments and embedded images, etc, are known as "Parts". This file will contain one record for each part associated with each message retrieve.

Each time this command is called the records in each of these files for the Microsoft ID that is running the command will be cleared.
