Clear the POP3 Session Log

Demonstrates the Chilkat MailMan.ClearPop3SessionLog method, which clears the current contents of the Pop3SessionLog property. This example performs a POP3 operation (which populates the log) and then clears it.

Background: The Pop3SessionLog accumulates the raw protocol conversation — the commands Chilkat sent and the server's replies — which is invaluable for diagnosing connection or authentication problems. When performing many operations on one MailMan object, the log grows continuously; ClearPop3SessionLog resets it so you can capture just the exchange for the next operation.

Procedure Test
    Handle hoMailman
    Integer iCount

    //  Demonstrates the MailMan.ClearPop3SessionLog method, which clears the current contents of
    //  the Pop3SessionLog property.

    Get Create (RefClass(cComChilkatMailMan)) To hoMailman
    If (Not(IsComObjectCreated(hoMailman))) Begin
        Send CreateComObject of hoMailman
    End

    //  Configure the POP3 server connection.
    Set ComMailHost Of hoMailman To "pop.example.com"
    Set ComMailPort Of hoMailman To 995
    Set ComPopSsl Of hoMailman To True
    Set ComPopUsername Of hoMailman To "user@example.com"
    Set ComPopPassword Of hoMailman To "myPassword"

    //  Perform a POP3 operation, which populates the session log.
    Get ComGetMailboxCount Of hoMailman To iCount
    Showln "Mailbox count: " iCount

    //  Clear the POP3 session log (for example, before the next operation).
    Send ComClearPop3SessionLog To hoMailman

    Showln "POP3 session log cleared."

    //  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.
