MailBee POP3 MailBee POP3 allows you to quickly and easily download mail from POP3
servers in ASP, VB or any other ActiveX-capable application. It supports secure authentication on a POP3 server, full and partial
download of messages (downloading headers), deleting messages, parsing and decoding messages into easy-to-use Message objects.
Like all other MailBee components, MailBee POP3 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 POP3, SSL, MIME and S/MIME is required.
MailBee POP3 returns downloaded messages as Message objects. Nothing gets saved to disk until the developer explicitly requests it.
Message class is a standard e-mail message container in MailBee. For instance, you can get a message from POP3 object and then re-send it
with SMTP object.

- Can retrieve any single particular message or (its headers)
- Can detect total message count in the mailbox, total size of all messages
and sizes of every message. All of above does not require to retrieve messages
or headers

converting charset to windows code page, etc.)
- Automatically creates plain-text version of HTML formatted message if plain
version is not available in the message itself
- Can determine whether a message contains attachments when downloading message
headers only
- Can delete messages from POP3 server
- Supports logging POP3 session into the file
- Can execute user-specified commands (SendCommand method)
- Ping method allows to implement "keep connection alive" function
in your applications
- Supports event mechanism to track retrieval progress (and abort retrieval
if needed)
POP3 Object reference...
- Available in all MailBee Objects packages (POP3, SMTP, Objects). Used as
a main unit POP3 retrieval and SMTP sending methods operate with
- Because SMTP object composes messages using Message object, all composing
functionality of SMTP object also applies to Message object
- Includes collection of a message's attachments
- Provides access to custom message headers through GetHeader method
- Can be created explicitly through CreateObject and then saved to disk or
sent by SMTP object
- Any content can be loaded to RawBody property (such as content of message
file or attachment with message inside)
- RawBody operates symmetrically: when you set Message properties or call
Message-affecting methods (such as AddAttachment), RawBody will reflect this
changes next time you read it; when you load RawBody with new value, other
Message properties such as BodyText are refreshed
- No redundant refreshes on RawBody. If you sequentially change some Message
properties, RawBody will be updated only when you read it, not after every
changing Message properties
