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: 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.
