POP3 Verify Signed (S/MIME) Email

Demonstrates how to download and verify digitally signed S/MIME email. .NET Core C#

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

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

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

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

    // The security layers of signed and/or encrypted emails
    // are automatically "unwrapped" when loaded into
    // a Chilkat email object.
    // An application only needs to check to see if an email
    // was received signed or encrypted, and then examine
    // the success/failure.  For example:
    if (email.ReceivedSigned == true) {

        Debug.WriteLine("This email was signed.");

        // Check to see if the signatures were verified.
        if (email.SignaturesValid == true) {
            Debug.WriteLine("Digital signature(s) verified.");
            Debug.WriteLine("Signer: " + email.SignedBy);

            if (success == false) {
                Debug.WriteLine(email.LastErrorText);
                return;
            }

            Debug.WriteLine("Signing cert: " + cert.SubjectCN);
