This is the second in a series of articles on Internet programming with Microsoft's
new C# programming language. In the first article, I wrote a simple SMTP class.
In this article, I'm going to write a simple POP3 class. The SMTP class that
I wrote was not very useful, except maybe as an exercise, as there already
exists a similar SMTP class in the Web.Mail namespace of the .NET
framework called SmtpMail. Our POP3 class in this article will
be a little more useful as it doesn't already exist in the .NET framework.
I have encountered many POP3 C# classes in my searches of the Internet and
most were sufficient to begin programming email clients.

//----------------------------------------------- private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { try { Pop3 obj = new Pop3(); obj.Connect("pop3.yahoo.com", "myusername", "mypassword"); ArrayList list = obj.List(); foreach (Pop3Message msg in list) { Pop3Message msg2 = obj.Retrieve(msg); System.Console.WriteLine("Message {0}: {1}", msg2.number, msg2.message); } obj.Disconnect(); } catch (Pop3Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.Message); } catch (System.Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.Message); } }
