LOCAL lnSuccess
LOCAL loMailman

lnSuccess = 0

*  This example assumes 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.
loMailman = CreateObject('Chilkat.MailMan')

*  Set the POP3 server's hostname
loMailman.MailHost = "pop.example.com"

*  Set the POP3 login/password.
loMailman.PopUsername = "bob@example.com"
loMailman.PopPassword = "****"

*  Make sure the ImmediateDelete property is set (this is the default)
*  If ImmediateDelete is not set, messages marked for deletion
*  by the Delete* methods will not be deleted until the POP3
*  connection is closed by calling Pop3EndSession.
loMailman.ImmediateDelete = 1

*  First, get all the UIDLs.
loStUidls = CreateObject('Chilkat.StringTable')
lnSuccess = loMailman.FetchUidls(loStUidls)
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loMailman.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loMailman
    RELEASE loStUidls
    CANCEL
ENDIF

*  Next, delete them all.
lnSuccess = loMailman.DeleteUidlSet(loStUidls)
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loMailman.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loMailman
    RELEASE loStUidls
    CANCEL
ENDIF

*  We're done with the POP3 session, so it doesn't hurt to call this...
lnSuccess = loMailman.Pop3EndSession()
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loMailman.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loMailman
    RELEASE loStUidls
    CANCEL
ENDIF

? "Success."

RELEASE loMailman
