Clear the POP3 Session Log

See more POP3 Examples

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.

    //  Configure the POP3 server connection.
    mailman.SetMailHost("pop.example.com")
    mailman.SetMailPort(995)

    //  Perform a POP3 operation, which populates the session log.
    count := mailman.GetMailboxCount()
    fmt.Println("Mailbox count: ", count)

    //  Clear the POP3 session log (for example, before the next operation).
    mailman.ClearPop3SessionLog()

    fmt.Println("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.

    mailman.DisposeMailMan()
