Monitoring Pop3 & IMAP emails on servers.

I need to monitor POP3 & IMAP servers for new emails. Ideally my app needs
to sit in the system tray. Has anyone done this before?

There are 100's of these examples all over the Internet. Here are just a
few:

http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb...1878&lngWId=10

http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb...2570&lngWId=10

The best place to look is http://www.gotdotnet.com 'user samples', but the
site is down for optional troubleshooting by the GotDotNet team. Just type
in 'POP3' & press ENTER. You'll find another 8 good examples there too. If
the site wasn't down now, I would give you the direct URL's.

Indy supports both POP3 and IMAP4, and its free:

Hi everybody, I just would like to download the new mails I received on my POP3 server (and keep a copy on the server) I use PHP 4.3 and IMAP functions (they are compatible with both POP3 and IMAP servers). When I use OUTLOOK, no problem, in less than 5 seconds, it answers me: " you have XX new messages"

I'm looking for an app that would allow me to download mails from various POP3 accounts and put them into my Exchange inbox on the server side (rather than having to have outlook open to do it all the time). There are many products that do this, but they're very expensive considering it's just for me and just for tinkering.

I'm not asking for any code (although it would be nice if someone got a sample). But how would i design a web based POP3 client? I want the users to be able to access the emails from Outlook, and the web based email client. What i'm not sure how to design is where to store the emails for the web based client. Should i operate on the mailroot folder directly, or create another folder on the server (or another server), where the emails...

Hey All, I am writing a POP3 control and I want to know how I can find out if it is a new message or a message that I have already read. Can that be done. Is there a flag I can check and set on the server to let me know? I also want to know if it is possible to create folder schema in the POP3 mailboxes? Thanks, Sean

I have been searching for some sort of comparison of POP3 components that would work with VB.NET. So far, I have not had great luck. I am hoping that maybe someone here can point me to a comparison and/or give any feedback on ones you have used. The application I am working on will interact with Exchange 2000 or 2003. Most likely will use POP3, but might choose IMAP. Will get about 20,000 emails per month that need to be retrieved and...

Like many people, I normally use Yahoo! Mail via the web and like to keep all my emails stored on the Yahoo! server. However sometimes I can’t get access to a PC/the web and I download my emails to a PDA/palmtop via POP3. The PDA uses Windows Mobile software. Since using the PDA, I have had the problem of emails disappearing from the Yahoo! server. However I think I now understand how to avoid this. It seems that Windows Mobile is...

I want to be able to allow people to check their email from my PHP online application. Given only the users 1) email address, 2) username (if applicable) and 3) password - how can I auto detect a remote IMAP/POP3 server so that I can connect and fetch mail for the user. (Ultimately, I don't want users to have to know what the IMAP/POP3 server name / port is .... I would like to auto-detect all of that). At first I thought I could use...

I would like to monitor a POP3 mailbox with multiple clients. However, I want to ensure that each message is processed by only one client. In essence, I would like to treat a POP3 mailbox like a queue. From what I've read thus far, atomic message access (if this is the right term) isn't a native feature of the POP3 protocol. Am I mistaken? My approach thus far, is to have one thread connect to the mailbox periodically, look for new...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
