Demonstrates how to communicate with a POP3 server through a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy.

Chilkat ActiveX Downloads ActiveX for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Note: The php_com_dotnet.dll may need to be enabled inside of php.ini.

<?php

// 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.
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.MailMan')
$mailman = new COM("Chilkat.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 Chilkat.EmailBundle
$bundle = $mailman->CopyMail();
if ($mailman->LastMethodSuccess == 0) {
    print $mailman->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

$i = 0;

while ($i < $bundle->MessageCount) {
    // email is a Chilkat.Email
    $email = $bundle->GetEmail($i);
    print 'From: ' . $email->From . "\n";
    print 'Subject: ' . $email->Subject . "\n";

    $i = $i + 1;
}

$mailman->Pop3EndSession();
