======Spam Filter Rules: HTTPGet======
^Statement  |HTTPGet |
^Version  |2.3.7+ |
^Purpose  |Enables the script to retrieve a web page |

The **HTTPGet** statement requires a url, headers variable name and content variable name, in the format
  HTTPGet <url> <headers variable name> <content variable name>

  * The first line of the headers variable will contain the HTTP result code, if present
  * If VPOP3 cannot connect to the web server or cannot resolve the name of the website, the headers may be empty
  * Only <nowiki>http://</nowiki> connections are supported - for <nowiki>https://</nowiki> connections, use [[spamrules_statement_winhttpget|WinHTTPGet]]
  * **HTTPGet** is only suitable for retrieving text web pages
  * VPOP3 has more control over **HTTPGet** than it does over **WinHTTPGet**


=====Example=====
The following example will retrieve the webpage <nowiki>"http://www.pscs.co.uk"</nowiki>, return the HTTP headers into the ${hdrs} variable and return the content into the ${content} variable
<code>
HTTPGet "http://www.pscs.co.uk" hdrs content
</code>
