Namespace:  Microsoft.ServiceModel.Channels.Mail
Assembly:  Microsoft.ServiceModel.Channels.Mail (in Microsoft.ServiceModel.Channels.Mail.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Property TimeToLive As TimeSpan
'Usage
Dim instance As MailBindingBase 
Dim value As TimeSpan 

value = instance.TimeToLive

instance.TimeToLive = value
public TimeSpan TimeToLive { get; set; }
public:
property TimeSpan TimeToLive {
    TimeSpan get ();
    void set (TimeSpan value);
}
public function get TimeToLive () : TimeSpan 
public function set TimeToLive (value : TimeSpan)

Property Value

Type: System.TimeSpan
A structure that determines the lifetime of messages sent on the output channel created for this binding.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentOutOfRangeException

TimeToLive is less than TimeSpan.Zero.

Remarks

The value of this property is added to the time that the message was created by the output channel, and the result is stored in the message class. If the destination transport receives the message after the lifetime has elapsed, the message is deleted and is not sent to the application.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the TimeToLive property. It uses a TimeSpan constructor that enables you to specify the lifetime of the message in days, hours, minutes, and seconds.

' For a desktop application, use ExchangeWebServiceMailBinding.
binding = New WindowsMobileMailBinding()

binding.MinimumAttachmentSize = 1024
' Set lifetime to 1 day, 10 hours, 20 minutes, and 30 seconds.
binding.TimeToLive = New TimeSpan(1, 10, 20, 30)
// For a desktop application, use ExchangeWebServiceMailBinding.
binding = new WindowsMobileMailBinding();

binding.MinimumAttachmentSize = 1024;
// Set lifetime to 1 day, 10 hours, 20 minutes, and 30 seconds.
binding.TimeToLive = new TimeSpan(1, 10, 20, 30);
