-
“Love the product, probably the most well architected and documented development tool I have used in some time.”
Ken Dunlop
MailBee.NET IMAP is a high-performance memory-conservative .NET component for processing mails and folders on IMAP4 servers. The component can do everything the POP3 component does, and much more: download and manage folders, search, flag, upload, move, copy messages, download message envelopes or any specific parts or attributes of messages, etc.
MailBee.NET IMAP downloads messages in a batch, drastically improving performance.
MailBee.NET IMAP bundle includes a set of MIME objects such as MailMessage and Attachment which are used for e-mail parsing.
Written in 100% managed code, MailBee.NET IMAP only requires the .NET framework be installed on the computer.
MailBee.NET IMAP can be used in any .NET language including C# and VB.NET. All .NET frameworks starting from .NET 1.1 are supported.
MailBee.NET IMAP fully supports IMAP4, SOCKS4/5/HTTP Proxy, TLS/SSL, MIME, S/MIME, XML, HTML, and MHTML. No knowledge of these standards is required of developers, however.
