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

Dim success As Boolean

// The mailman object is used for receiving (POP3) 
// and sending (SMTP) email.
Dim mailman As New Chilkat.MailMan

// Set the POP3 server's hostname
mailman.MailHost = "pop.someMailServer.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:
Dim saUidls As Chilkat.StringArray
saUidls = mailman.GetUidls()
If (mailman.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(mailman.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// Download the email as MIME strings (no parsing of the MIME)
Dim saMime As Chilkat.StringArray
saMime = mailman.FetchMultipleMime(saUidls)
If (mailman.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(mailman.LastErrorText)

    Return
End If

// MIME strings may be loaded into email objects:
Dim i As Int32
Dim email As New Chilkat.Email
For i = 0 To saMime.Count - 1
    success = email.SetFromMimeText(saMime.GetString(i))
    System.DebugLog("From: " + email.From)
    System.DebugLog("Subject: " + email.Subject)
