MailBee IMAP4 enables developers to quickly add IMAP capabilities to their Windows or web applications. The component supports message search and checking new/read/unread status (all of the above - without downloading entire messages or even message headers). Basic features are also supported - preview messages, retrieve, parse and manage messages and mailboxes (folders). The component can be used in any ActiveX-capable language such as ASP, VB, Delphi, C++, etc.

Like all other MailBee components, MailBee IMAP can be extended with MailBee SSL/SMIME Component. This will enable full support of SSL/TLS connections (for instance, you can use it with GMail) and S/MIME.

No knowledge of IMAP4, SSL, MIME and S/MIME is required.

In order to use the component, make sure the mail server you are using does support IMAP4 protocol.
