POP3 Verify Signed (S/MIME) Email

Demonstrates how to download and verify digitally signed S/MIME email. Swift

    var success: Bool = false

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

    mailman.mailHost = "pop.example.com"

    // Set the POP3 login/password.
    mailman.popUsername = "myLogin"

        // 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 {

            print("This email was signed.")

            // Check to see if the signatures were verified.
            if email.signaturesValid == true {
                print("Digital signature(s) verified.")
