The privacy level of a queue ( MSMQQueueInfo.PrivLevel) specifies whether the queue accepts private (encrypted) messages, non-private messages, or both.

By default a queue accepts both private and non-private messages.

Note:
If your application does not have MQSEC_GET_QUEUE_PROPERTIES access rights for the queue, an MQ_ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED error is returned to MSMQQueueInfo.Refresh.

  2. Obtain an MSMQQueueInfoobject.

  3. (Optional) Call MSMQQueueInfo.Refreshif other applications may have changed the privacy level of the queue.
