# 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 = New-Object Chilkat.MailMan

# Set the POP3 server's hostname
$mailman.MailHost = "pop.example.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:
$stUidls = New-Object Chilkat.StringTable
$success = $mailman.FetchUidls($stUidls)
if ($success -eq $false) {
    $($mailman.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# Download each email as MIME.
# If desired, the MIME can be loaded into an email object.
$bdMime = New-Object Chilkat.BinData
$email = New-Object Chilkat.Email
