Lua Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

POP3 Session Log

Demonstrates how the Chilkat email component keeps a log of the current POP3 session in the mailman.Pop3SessionLog property. Lua

    -- In the following call to loadlib, change the path (./chilkat.dll) to the relative or absolute directory where the chilkat.dll, chilkat.so, or chilkat.dylib is located.
    chilkat = assert(package.loadlib("./chilkat.dll", "luaopen_chilkat"))()
    print(chilkat._VERSION)

    local success = false

    --  This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    --  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    --  The mailman object is used for receiving (POP3) 
    --  and sending (SMTP) email.
    local mailman = chilkat.newMailMan{}

    --  Set the POP3 server's hostname
    mailman:setMailHost("pop3.example.com")

    --  Set the POP3 login/password.
    mailman:setPopUsername("pop3_login")
    mailman:setPopPassword("pop3_password")
    mailman:setMailPort(995)
    mailman:setPopSsl(true)

    --  You can start and end POP3 sessions using Pop3BeginSession and Pop3EndSession. 
    --  However, these calls are optional because a connection will be established automatically 
    --  when a method requiring a POP3 server connection is used.

    success = mailman:Pop3BeginSession()
    if success == false then
        print(mailman:LastErrorText())

    end

    --  Get the list of UIDLs for all emails in the mailbox.
    local stUidls = chilkat.newStringTable{}
    success = mailman:FetchUidls(stUidls)
    if success == false then
        print(mailman:LastErrorText())
