Chilkat .NET Downloads Chilkat .NET Framework Chilkat for .NET Core

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Chilkat.MailMan mailman = new Chilkat.MailMan();

// Connection settings for pop3.live.com (or pop-mail.outlook.com, both should work)
mailman.MailHost = "pop-mail.outlook.com";
mailman.MailHost = "pop3.live.com";

mailman.PopUsername = "my_account@live.com";
mailman.PopPassword = "my_live.com_password";
mailman.MailPort = 995;
mailman.PopSsl = true;

// Make the TLS connection to the POP3 server.
bool success = mailman.Pop3Connect();
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Authenticate..
success = mailman.Pop3Authenticate();
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Find out how many emails are on the server..
int numEmails = mailman.CheckMail();
if (numEmails < 0) {
    Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Examine the POP3 session log:
Debug.WriteLine(mailman.Pop3SessionLog);

// End the POP3 session and close the connection to the POP3 server.
success = mailman.Pop3EndSession();
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

Debug.WriteLine("-- Finished.");
