Remarks
The Post Office Protocol (POP3) provides access to a user’s new
e-mail messages on a mail server. Methods 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 control provides a complete
interface for managing a user’s mailbox. This control is typically
used in conjunction with the Mail Message control, which is used to
process the messages that are retrieved from the server.
This control supports secure connections using the standard SSL
and TLS protocols. Both implicit and explicit SSL connections can
be established, enabling the control to work with a wide variety of
servers. A SocketTools Secure Visual Edition license must be
purchased to use the security features in this control.
Requirements
This ActiveX control 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 installed.
The SocketTools Visual Edition components are compatible with
any development tool that fully supports COM (Component Object
Model) and the ActiveX control specification. 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 or Visual Studio 2005, 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 an application that uses this control, you
should install the appropriate file in the Windows system
directory. ActiveX controls must be registered on the target system
by the installation program before they can be used by an
application.
