ImapClientSslCipherAlgorithm Property

Get the negotiated SSL or TLS cipher algorithm.

Namespace: MailKit.Net.Imap
Assembly: MailKit (in MailKit.dll) Version: 4.3.0
Syntax
C#
public override CipherAlgorithmType? SslCipherAlgorithm { get; }

Property Value

NullableCipherAlgorithmType
The negotiated SSL or TLS cipher algorithm.

Implements

IMailServiceSslCipherAlgorithm
IMailServiceSslCipherAlgorithm
Remarks
Gets the negotiated SSL or TLS cipher algorithm once an SSL or TLS connection has been made.
Example
C#
public static void PrintSslConnectionInfo (string host, int port)
{
    using (var client = new ImapClient ()) {
        client.Connect (host, port, SecureSocketOptions.Auto);

        Console.WriteLine ($"Negotiated the following SSL options with {host}:");
        Console.WriteLine ($"        Protocol Version: {client.SslProtocol}");
        Console.WriteLine ($"        Cipher Algorithm: {client.SslCipherAlgorithm}");
        Console.WriteLine ($"         Cipher Strength: {client.SslCipherStrength}");
        Console.WriteLine ($"          Hash Algorithm: {client.SslHashAlgorithm}");
        Console.WriteLine ($"           Hash Strength: {client.SslHashStrength}");
        Console.WriteLine ($"  Key-Exchange Algorithm: {client.SslKeyExchangeAlgorithm}");
        Console.WriteLine ($"   Key-Exchange Strength: {client.SslKeyExchangeStrength}");

        // Example Log:
        // 
        // Negotiated the following SSL options with imap.gmail.com:
        //         Protocol Version: Tls12
        //         Cipher Algorithm: Aes128
        //          Cipher Strength: 128

        //            Hash Strength: 0
        //   Key-Exchange Algorithm: 44550
        //    Key-Exchange Strength: 255

        client.Disconnect (true);
    }
