Enum ProtectedSurface

Namespace

MailFathom.Domain.Access

Assembly

MailFathom.Domain.dll

One of the two halves the published permission vocabulary is divided into.

public enum ProtectedSurface

Fields

Administration = 1

The surface serving the deployment's own administration.

Mail = 0

The surface serving the mailbox: the MCP tools that read the local copy and the one that answers from it.

Remarks

A permission belongs to exactly one surface and says so in its own name, which is what lets a grant written on the wrong surface be refused at startup instead of sitting there granting nothing. The two halves are disjoint: no permission covers an operation on both.

It is a plain enum because a member is nothing but a name the process reads. What a caller may do is carried by MailFathomPermission, and where a surface is served — which listener, which routes, which authentication schemes — is the host's own question and is answered there.
