The PR_MESSAGE_SIZE property contains the sum, in bytes, of the sizes of all properties on a message object.

Quick Info

Header file: MAPITAGS.H
May be exposed by: Message objects
Identifier: 0x0E08
Property type: PT_LONG
Property tag: 0x0E080003

Remarks

It is recommended that message objects expose the PR_MESSAGE_SIZE property. The message size indicates the approximate number of bytes transferred when the message is moved from one message store to another. Being the sum of the sizes of all properties on the message object, it is usually considerably greater than the message text alone.

Most message store providers compute the PR_MESSAGE_SIZE property for messages that they handle. However, some message store providers do not support this property. In any case, PR_MESSAGE_SIZE is not available until the IMAPIProp::SaveChanges or IMessage::SubmitMessage method has been called.
