MIME CurrentDateTime Property

See more MIME Examples

Demonstrates the read-only CurrentDateTime property, which returns the current local date and time formatted as an Internet message date including the numeric UTC offset. The example uses it to populate a Date header field.

<?php

use Chilkat2\Mime;

$mime = new Mime();
try {
    $mime->SetBodyFromPlainText('Message with a Date header.');
} catch (\Chilkat2\Exception $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage(), "\n";
    exit;
}

// CurrentDateTime returns the current local date and time formatted as an Internet message date,
// including the numeric UTC offset, for example: Fri, 21 Nov 1997 09:55:06 -0600
$now = $mime->CurrentDateTime;
echo 'Current date/time: ', $now, "\n";

// It can be used to populate a Date header field.
$mime->SetHeaderField('Date', $now);

try {
    $head = $mime->GetEntireHead();
} catch (\Chilkat2\Exception $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage(), "\n";
    exit;
}

echo $head, "\n";
