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.

Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

JavaScript

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

var mailman = new CkMailMan();

//  Configure the POP3 server connection.
mailman.MailHost = "pop.example.com";
mailman.MailPort = 995;
mailman.PopSsl = true;
mailman.PopUsername = "user@example.com";
mailman.PopPassword = "myPassword";

//  Perform a POP3 operation, which populates the session log.
var count = mailman.GetMailboxCount();
console.log("Mailbox count: " + count);

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

console.log("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.
