Before you connect
Questions about Email Header Metadata Extractor.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
How can I use the Email Header Metadata Extractor to check for phishing?
You can provide the raw email source to your agent, which will then use the capability to pull the DKIM signature and sender domain, allowing you to verify if the email is legitimately from the claimed sender.
Can this Email Header Metadata Extractor find out how many servers an email passed through?
Yes. By analyzing the 'Received' headers in the raw source, the capability calculates the exact hop count, showing you the full path the email took.
Does the Email Header Metadata Extractor work with any email provider?
Yes, as long as you can access and copy the raw RFC 822 source text from your email client, this capability can parse it regardless of the provider.
What kind of data can I get from the Email Header Metadata Extractor?
You can get critical metadata including sender/recipient addresses, subject lines, timestamps, Message-IDs, DKIM signatures, and the complete routing history.
Is the Email Header Metadata Extractor useful for troubleshooting mail delivery?
Absolutely. It's designed to help you see exactly where an email might be getting stuck or diverted by providing a clear count of the hops and the specific servers involved.
What kind of email data can be extracted?
The extract_email_metadata capability extracts standard headers like From, To, Subject, Date, Message-ID, Received, and DKIM-Signature, along with hop counts and domain names.
How is the hop count calculated?
The hop count is determined by counting the number of 'Received:' header entries present in the raw email source.
Does this work with any email format?
This capability is specifically designed for raw RFC 822 email source text.
