Secure Message Center (SMC) API
API change historyDELETE A MESSAGE
This method is used to delete a message from a folder. When a message is deleted, it's normally moved to a Trash folder and then a Deleted Trash folder before being permanently purged from the DataMotion account. The trash deletion mechanism is controlled by the DataMotion Server. Deleting a message only removes the message from the current user’s account. It does not remove the message from the account of any other DataMotion users referenced in the message. A session key must be submitted via the X-Session-Key header. The request body should be left empty. The message ID of the message you'd like to delete must be passed in the URL of this method. Include "?Permanently=true" to force a message to be permanently deleted from the account, bypassing any Trash folders. A successful transaction will receive a 200 status code.
