'  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Dim mailman As ChilkatMailMan
mailman.Initialize("mailman")

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

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

'  Get the number of messages in the mailbox.
Dim numMessages As Int = mailman.GetMailboxCount

'  Message numbers are specific to a POP3 session. 
'  If a maildrop (i.e. inbox)  contains 10 messages, 
'  the message numbers will be 1, 2, 3, ... 10. 
'  If message number 1 is deleted and a new POP3 session 
'  is established, there will be 9 messages numbered 1, 2, 3, ... 9. 

Dim i As Int = 1

Dim email As ChilkatEmail
email.Initialize
Do While i <= numMessages
    '  Fetch by the message number (not by the UIDL)
    success = mailman.FetchOne(False, 0, i, email)
    If success = False Then
        Log(mailman.LastErrorText)
        Return
    End If


    Log(email.From & ": " & email.Subject & Chr(10))
