Example

The following example demonstrates logging into a POP server and retrieving all messages.

Visual Basic	Copy Code
' Be sure to import the namespace by putting "Imports Dart.PowerTCP.Mail" ' at the top of your class. ' Automatically remove files after getting them from the server Pop1.AutoDelete = True ' Login. The default settings will cause the Pop component to ' automatically retrieve all messages, delete them from the ' server, and logout. Pop1.Login("mail.test.com", "testuser", "testpass") ' All message retrieved. Iterate through the collection ' and display data. Dim msg As PopMessage For Each msg In Pop1.Messages Debug.WriteLine("Message ID: " + msg.Id) Debug.WriteLine("Message UID: " + msg.Uid) Debug.WriteLine("Messge Size: " + msg.Size) Debug.WriteLine("From: " + msg.Message.From.Address) Debug.WriteLine("Subject: " + msg.Message.Subject) Next

}

Remarks

Each PopMessage object has a PopMessage.Delete property which, when set, will mark the message for deletion. Setting the Pop.AutoDelete property to true means that all messages, once downloaded, will be automatically marked for deletion. The Pop.AutoDelete property is false by default, meaning that you must explicitly set the PopMessage.Delete property if you wish for all downloaded messages to be deleted. If you would like to have more fine-tuned control over which messages are deleted, set the Pop.AutoLogout property to false, and simply set the PopMessage.Delete property to true for each message you would like deleted.

Note: Since all messages marked for deletion are deleted just prior to logout, depending on the amount of messages that are marked, there may be a slight delay before the Pop.Logout method returns.
