Demonstrates how to send high-priorty email (or lower priority email) by setting the X-Priority header field. Lianja

llSuccess = .F.

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// The mailman object is used for sending and receiving email.
loMailman = createobject("CkMailMan")

// Set the SMTP server (obviously, use your SMTP server, not chilkatsoft.com)
loMailman.SmtpHost = "smtp.chilkatsoft.com"

// Set the SMTP login/password (if required)
loMailman.SmtpUsername = "myUsername"
loMailman.SmtpPassword = "myPassword"

// Create a new email object
loEmail = createobject("CkEmail")

loEmail.Subject = "This is a test"
loEmail.Body = "This is a test"
loEmail.From = "Chilkat Support <support@chilkatsoft.com>"
llSuccess = loEmail.AddTo("Chilkat Admin","admin@chilkatsoft.com")
// To add more recipients, call AddTo, AddCC, or AddBcc once per recipient.

// To send high-priority email, 
// add the X-Priority header field with the value "1" 
// to indicate highest-priority.
// A value of "3" is normal, which is the same as not setting
// the X-Priority header at all, and "5" is the lowest. 
// "2" and "4" are in-betweens.

// Microsoft Outlook might add the following headers when
// sending high-priority email.

// X-Priority: 1 (Highest) 
// X-MSMail-Priority: High 
// Importance: High 

// The X-Priority header alone is enough to make the email high-priority.

loEmail.AddHeaderField("X-Priority","1")

// Call SendEmail to connect to the SMTP server and send.
// The connection (i.e. session) to the SMTP server remains
// open so that subsequent SendEmail calls may use the
// same connection.  
llSuccess = loMailman.SendEmail(loEmail)
if (llSuccess <> .T.) then
    ? loMailman.LastErrorText
    release loMailman
