Rust Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Read All Email from POP3 Inbox by Message Numbers

Demonstrates how to read all of the email from a POP3 inbox by fetching each email by it's message number. Rust

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

let mailman = chilkat::MailMan::new();

// Set the POP3 server's hostname
mailman.set_mail_host("pop.example.com");

// Set the POP3 login/password.
mailman.set_pop_username("myLogin");
mailman.set_pop_password("myPassword");

// Get the number of messages in the mailbox.
let num_messages = mailman.get_mailbox_count();

// 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. 

let mut i = 1;

let email = chilkat::Email::new();
while i <= num_messages {
    // Fetch by the message number (not by the UIDL)
    if mailman.fetch_one(false, 0, i, &email).is_err() {
        println!("{}", mailman.last_error_text());
        return;
    }

    println!("{}: {}\n", email.from(), email.subject());

    i = i + 1;
