' The mailman object is used for receiving (POP3) 
' and sending (SMTP) email.

' Set the POP3 server's hostname

' Set the POP3 login/password.

' 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.

' First, get all the UIDLs.
' sa is a Chilkat.StringArray
Set sa = mailman.GetUidls()

' Next, delete them all.

' We're done with the POP3 session, so it doesn't hurt to call this...
