The 'count' property

Read-only, Integer scalar (for GetMail), Two-element integer vector (for Tree)

Valid for: GetMail, Tree

For a Getmail object, the count property contains the number of e-mails available on the POP3 server. It is valid only when you are successfully connected to the server.

For a Tree object, the count property returns a two-element vector. The first element is the total number of nodes in the tree, and the second is the number of nodes that are fully visible in the control. Under Linux, the second element is not available and will always be returned as 0.
