Set the Decryption Certificate for MailMan

See more POP3 Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat MailMan.SetDecryptCert method, which explicitly specifies the certificate to use when decrypting encrypted email. The certificate must correspond to the recipient certificate used to encrypt the message and must have access to its private key. This example loads the certificate from a PFX, registers it, and fetches a message that Chilkat can then decrypt.

    //  Note: Explicitly connecting/authenticating is optional.  Chilkat MailMan automatically
    //  connects and authenticates -- using the property settings above -- whenever a server
    //  operation requires it.  Calling the explicit connect/authenticate methods can still be
    //  helpful to determine whether a failure occurs while connecting or while authenticating.
