Back to the Mailbox view | Onward to the Compose view | Up to Working with Views
The message view actually displays a message. It takes one very important command, msgno, which must be set to the message to display. E.g., Message View
<a href="message.remotemail?msgno=5>Read message five</a>
will display the fith message.
Tags Supported
- [xid]
- [nextmsgno] - the number of the next undeleted message. This allows you to provide a "Read Next" link.
- [msgno] - The number of this message
- [recipient] - the receiver of the message
- [sender] - The sender of the message
- [cc] - The Cc recipients of the message
- [date] - The date the message was sent
- [subject] - The subject of the message
- [body] - The body of the message. It is best to display this inside a <pre> block. The lines are wrapped at 80 characters (or your current config setting for message-wrap-length) and all tabs are converted to five spaces. After quite a bit of experimentation, this proved to be about the best way to handle messages. MIME attachments are shown inline if they are images or text files, and other attachments are accessed via a link.
- [head] - Displays the full header of the message. This is formatted the same as [body], so the use of a <pre> block is recommended.
