Verify Connectivity to the POP3 Server

See more POP3 Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat MailMan.VerifyPopConnection method, which tests whether a TCP/IP connection can be established with the configured POP3 server. It verifies connectivity only — it does not authenticate. This example configures the POP3 host and checks whether it can be reached.

// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.
