I need to create an online email application which will receive and
send emails from given accounts using ASP.
I am aware that I can use ASP components such as ASPEmail or
ASPSmartMail to send messages, but have no idea how to receive emails.
I read somewhere that CDONTS may help, but my provider has disabled
these on his server.
Any suggestions? Thanks ,R 6 1653

Unfortunately a regular email client won't work. The client is always
on the move and needs very specific functions not provided by the
webmail system offered by his host.
I mentioned 'receiving' emails before. However, 'viewing' received
emails would also be sufficient.
Any ideas? Thanks, R

A standard email client can usually receive email from anywhere on the
internet. For example, I can receive my work email at home or in the office.
In order to view received email directly through a web application you have
to have access to the POP3 server where the email is stored. If you have
direct access to the mail server's files and know the format you could read
them using the filesystem object. If not, you would need to use the POP3
protocol to download them from the mail-server. The protocol is relatively
simple (text-based) but needs a telnet-like connection.
If the client is already receiving email through a web-based mail system as
you mentioned you may be able to simulate a login and screen-scrape the
emails from the mail-server using server-side HTTP POST requests. See http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=2173

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, I don't have direct access to the
POP3 server so would need to use the POP3 protocol option.
How difficult is it to read the 'from', 'subject', 'date', & 'message'
info. from the server? Can I do this using ASP and - if I only want to
read, NOT download - can I do it using a normal dial up internet
connection?
Thanks in advance for any more advice. R

You can telnet to the POP3 server and send the proper commands to do
all these things. RFC1939 describes the POP3 protocol. It's available
at http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1939.html.
