EmailSetTimeOut (Function)

In french: EmailChangeTimeOut

Changes the value of the "timeout" for connecting to the SMTP, POP3 and IMAP messaging servers. The value of the "timeout" is set to 10 minutes by default. This value is returned by EmailGetTimeOut.

Reminder: The timeout is the maximum amount of time allowed while waiting for a response from the messaging server. If the server does not respond within this time-out, the connection fails.

Syntax

EmailSetTimeOut(<Timeout Duration>)

<Timeout Duration>: Integer ou duration

Timeout value in seconds. This parameter can correspond to:
an integer corresponding to the number of seconds,
a Duration variable,
the duration in a readable format (e.g., 1 s).

Remarks

Connection and timeout functions

The connection functions (EmailStartSession, EmailStartPOP3Session and EmailStartSMTPSession) are locking functions during the entire connection. If the server does not respond, these functions are locking functions during the time-out duration.

Remark: The timeout value defined by EmailSetTimeOut represents the time passed to wait for the response from the messaging server. The real execution time of EmailStartSession, EmailStartPOP3Session and EmailStartSMTPSession can be greater than this value (for a slow DNS for example).
