;  The mailman object is used for receiving (POP3) 
;  and sending (SMTP) email.
$oMailman = ObjCreate("Chilkat.MailMan")

;  To connect through an HTTP proxy, set the HttpProxyHostname
;  and HttpProxyPort properties to the hostname (or IP address)
;  and port of the HTTP proxy.  Typical port numbers used by
;  HTTP proxy servers are 3128 and 8080.
$oMailman.HttpProxyHostname = "www.my-http-proxy.com"
$oMailman.HttpProxyPort = 3128

;  Important:  Your HTTP proxy server must allow non-HTTP
;  traffic to pass.  Otherwise this does not work.

;  Set the POP3 server's hostname
$oMailman.MailHost = "pop.example.com"

;  Set the POP3 login/password.
$oMailman.PopUsername = "myLogin"
$oMailman.PopPassword = "myPassword"

;  Copy the all email from the user's POP3 mailbox 
;  into a bundle object.  The email remains on the server.
;  
;  NOTE: All methods that communicate with a POP3 server
;  will automatically connect and authenticate (i.e. login)
;  if not already connected.  The connection will remain
;  open after the method call returns so that subsequent
;  calls do not need to re-establish the connection.
;  In this case, the connection is established via the HTTP
;  proxy.
