## Functions

### g_mime_autocrypt_header_new ()

    GMimeAutocryptHeader *
    g_mime_autocrypt_header_new (void);

Creates a new GMimeAutocryptHeader object.

#### Returns

a new GMimeAutocryptHeader object.

[transfer full]

### g_mime_autocrypt_header_new_from_string ()

    GMimeAutocryptHeader *
    g_mime_autocrypt_header_new_from_string
                                   (const char *string);

Creates a new GMimeAutocryptHeader object based on the value of an Autocrypt: header.

When dealing with Autocrypt headers derived from a message, some sender addresses will not have a legitimate/complete header associated with them. When a given sender address has no complete header of a specific type, it should "reset" the state of the associated address.

#### Parameters

ah | a GMimeAutocryptHeader object |

#### Returns

`TRUE` if the header is complete, or `FALSE` if it is incomplete.

Gets the string representation of the Autocrypt header, or `NULL` on error. For example, it might return:

prefer-encrypt=mutual; addr=bob@example.com; keydata=AAAB15BE...

If you are using this object to populate an Autocrypt-Gossip header, you should set `gossip` to `TRUE` (this will suppress inclusion of prefer-encrypt).

#### Parameters

ah | a GMimeAutocryptHeader object |
gossip | a gboolean, indicating whether this header is for use with gossip |

#### Returns

the string representation of the Autocrypt header.

- address

- effective_date

- keydata

- prefer_encrypt

#### Parameters

ah1 | a GMimeAutocryptHeader object |
ah2 | a GMimeAutocryptHeader object |

#### Returns

-1, 0, or 1 when `ah1` is less than, equal to, or greater than `ah2` .
