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.

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

    let mailman = CkoMailMan()!

    //  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: Int = mailman.getMailboxCount().intValue
    print("Mailbox count: \(count)")

    //  Clear the POP3 session log (for example, before the next operation).
    mailman.clearPop3SessionLog()

    print("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.
