Compare Two Emails by UIDL

See more Email Object Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat Email.UidlEquals method, which returns true if this email's UIDL equals the UIDL of the email passed as the argument. The comparison is meaningful for messages obtained through POP3. This example gives two emails the same UIDL and compares them.
