Remarks
The Post Office Protocol (POP3) provides access to a user’s new
e-mail messages on a mail server. Functions are provided for
listing available messages and then retrieving those messages,
storing them either in files or in memory. Once a user’s messages
have been downloaded to the local system, they are typically
removed from the server. This is the most popular e-mail protocol
used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and the library provides
a complete interface for managing a user’s mailbox. This library is
typically used in conjunction with the Mail Message library, which
is used to process the messages that are retrieved from the
server.
This library supports secure connections using the standard SSL
and TLS protocols. Both implicit and explicit SSL connections can
be established, enabling the library to work with a wide variety of
servers. A SocketTools Secure Library Edition license must be
purchased to use the security features in this library.
Requirements
This library is supported on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows
Server 2003, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008. If you are
using Windows 2000, it is required that you have Service Pack (SP4)
installed. If you are using Windows XP, it is required that you
have at least Service Pack 2 (SP2) installed and it is recommended
that you install Internet Explorer 7.0. It is also recommended that
all critical updates to the Windows operating system be

The SocketTools Library Edition libraries are compatible with
any development environment that supports calling functions
exported from a standard dynamic link library (DLL). This includes
Visual Studio 6.0, Visual Studio .NET 2003, Visual Studio 2005 and
Visual Studio 2008. If you are using Visual Basic 6.0 or Visual C++
6.0, it is required that you have Service Pack 6 (SP6) installed.
If you are using Visual Studio .NET 2003, it is recommended that
you install Service Pack 1 (SP1). In all cases, it is recommended
that you have the current updates for your development tools
installed.
Distribution
When you distribute your application that uses this library, you
should install the appropriate files in the same folder as your
application executable. This library is a standard Windows dynamic
link library and not a self-registering COM component.
