Download POP3 Email using UIDLs

Demonstrates how to download POP3 email by first getting the complete set of UIDLs and then downloading email by calling FetchByUIDL for each UIDL. C#

bool success = false;

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// The mailman object is used for receiving (POP3) 
// and sending (SMTP) email.
Chilkat.MailMan mailman = new Chilkat.MailMan();

// Set the POP3 server's hostname
mailman.MailHost = "pop.example.com";

// Set the POP3 login/password.
mailman.PopUsername = "myLogin";
mailman.PopPassword = "myPassword";

Chilkat.StringTable stUidls = new Chilkat.StringTable();
success = mailman.FetchUidls(stUidls);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

Chilkat.Email email = new Chilkat.Email();

int count = stUidls.Count;
int i = 0;
while (i < count) {
    // Download the full email.
    success = mailman.FetchByUidl(stUidls.StringAt(i),false,0,email);
    if (success == false) {
        Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText);
        return;
    }

    Debug.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(i));
    Debug.WriteLine("From: " + email.From);
    Debug.WriteLine("Subject: " + email.Subject);

    i = i + 1;
}
