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

bool success;

// The mailman object is used for receiving (POP3) 
// and sending (SMTP) email.
Chilkat.MailMan mailman = new Chilkat.MailMan();

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

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

// First, get the complete set of UIDLs for the email in the POP3 mailbox:
Chilkat.StringArray saUidls = await mailman.GetUidlsAsync();
if (mailman.LastMethodSuccess != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Download the email as MIME strings (no parsing of the MIME)
Chilkat.StringArray saMime = await mailman.FetchMultipleMimeAsync(saUidls);
if (mailman.LastMethodSuccess != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText);

    return;
}

// MIME strings may be loaded into email objects:
int i;
Chilkat.Email email = new Chilkat.Email();
for (i = 0; i <= saMime.Count - 1; i++) {
    success = email.SetFromMimeText(saMime.GetString(i));
    Debug.WriteLine("From: " + email.From);
    Debug.WriteLine("Subject: " + email.Subject);
