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

# The mailman object is used for receiving (POP3) 
# and sending (SMTP) email.
mailman = chilkat2.MailMan()

# To use a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy, simply set the following
# properties prior to making any calls that communicate with
# a POP3 server:
# The SOCKS hostname may be a domain name or 
# IP address:
mailman.SocksHostname = "www.mysocksproxyserver.com"
mailman.SocksPort = 1080
mailman.SocksUsername = "myProxyLogin"
mailman.SocksPassword = "myProxyPassword"
# Set the SOCKS version to 4 or 5 based on the version
# of the SOCKS proxy server:
mailman.SocksVersion = 5
# Note: SOCKS4 servers only support usernames without passwords.
# SOCKS5 servers support full login/password authentication.

# Set the POP3 server's hostname
mailman.MailHost = "pop.someMailServer.com"

# Set the POP3 login/password.
mailman.PopUsername = "myLogin"
mailman.PopPassword = "myPassword"

# Copy the all email from the user's POP3 mailbox 
# into a bundle object.  The email remains on the server.
# bundle is a CkEmailBundle
bundle = mailman.CopyMail()
if (mailman.LastMethodSuccess == False):
    print(mailman.LastErrorText)
    sys.exit()

while i < bundle.MessageCount :

    email = bundle.GetEmail(i)
    print("From: " + email.From)
    print("Subject: " + email.Subject)
