Struct MailAccountSelector

Namespace

MailFathom.Domain.Accounts

Assembly

MailFathom.Domain.dll

Holds the text a request uses to name an account, before anything has decided which account that is.

public readonly record struct MailAccountSelector : IEquatable<MailAccountSelector>

Implements

IEquatable<MailAccountSelector>

Inherited Members

ValueType.Equals(object)

ValueType.GetHashCode()

object.Equals(object, object)

object.GetType()

object.ReferenceEquals(object, object)

Remarks

An account can be named two ways — by the MailAccountId an operator configured or by the MailAccountDisplayName it is published under — and a caller is not required to know which of the two it is holding. The distinction is settled where the served accounts are known, so what travels from a protocol boundary into a use case is this: text that has been proven safe to carry and nothing more.

It is deliberately not a MailAccountId. Reading caller text as an identifier before it has been matched would put a value nobody configured into a type whose whole meaning is that MailFathom issued it, and the refusal for text that names no account would then be indistinguishable from a lookup of a real identity.
