VB.NET program showing how to set connection and read timeouts when reading email from a POP3 server.

        textBox1.Text = ""

        ' Create a mailman object for reading email.
        Dim mailman As New Chilkat.MailMan()

        ' Any string argument automatically begins the 30-day trial.
        mailman.UnlockComponent("30-day trial")

        ' Set our POP3 hostname, login and password
        mailman.MailHost = "mail.chilkatsoft.com"
        mailman.PopUsername = "login"
        mailman.PopPassword = "password"

        ' Set TCP/IP socket connection and read timeouts in number of seconds.
        mailman.ConnectTimeout = 5
        mailman.ReadTimeout = 5

        ' Copy email from the POP3 server, leaving it on the server.
        Dim bundle As Chilkat.EmailBundle
        bundle = mailman.CopyMail()
        If bundle Is Nothing Then
            MessageBox.Show(mailman.LastErrorText)
            Return
        End If

        Dim i As Integer
        Dim n As Integer = bundle.MessageCount
        For i = 0 To n - 1
            Dim email As Chilkat.Email = bundle.GetEmail(i)

            textBox1.Text = textBox1.Text + email.From + ControlChars.Cr + ControlChars.Lf
            textBox1.Text = textBox1.Text + email.Subject + ControlChars.Cr + ControlChars.Lf
            textBox1.Text = textBox1.Text + email.Body + ControlChars.Cr + ControlChars.Lf + "****" + ControlChars.Cr + ControlChars.Lf
        Next i
