POP Class

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

The POP Class is used to easily retrieve electronic mail from internet post office servers (POP).

Syntax

POP

Remarks

The POP Class supports both plaintext and Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) connections (RFC 2595). When connecting over Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) the SSLServerAuthentication event allows you to check the server identity and other security attributes. The SSLStatus event provides information about the SSL handshake. Additional SSL-related settings are also supported through the Config method.

The POP Class implements a standard internet post office (POP3) client as specified in RFC 1725.

To connect to a MailServer, first set the appropriate User and Password and then connect by calling the Connect method. Upon successful connection to the MailServer, the number of waiting messages is shown by the MessageCount property. A message is selected by setting the MessageNumber property to a number between 1 and MessageCount (inclusive). Then, the message text and headers are received by calling the Retrieve method.

The message text is received through the Transfer event, whereas the message headers are received through the Header event. Additionally, up to MaxLines from the message body are provided in the MessageText property. The body of the message is also saved in the file specified by the LocalFile property. StartTransfer and EndTransfer events are fired at the beginning and end of message transmission. The PITrail event provides a trace of the interaction between the client and server (excluding message transfers).

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property is used as the authentication mechanism when connecting to the mail server. By default, this property is amUserPassword (0), and default plaintext authentication is used to log in to the server. Other, more secure, options include amCRAMMD5 (1) for CRAM-MD5, amNTLM (2) for NTLM authentication, amAPOP (3) for APOP authentication, and amSASLDigestMD5 (5) for SASL DIGEST-MD5 authentication.

amSASLPlain (4) is also available, but most servers require a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connection when utilizing this authentication mechanism.

amKerberos (6) is for Kerberos authentication. Note: This functionality is available only in Windows.

QString GetLocalFile();
int SetLocalFile(QString qsLocalFile);

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property is used when retrieving a message. If this property is empty, then the received data are provided through the parameters of the Transfer event. Note: If you are not retrieving the entire message (MaxLines is nonzero), no data will be written to LocalFile.

Data Type

String

LocalHost Property (POP Class)

The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetLocalHost();

int ipworks_pop_setlocalhost(void* lpObj, const char* lpszLocalHost);

QString GetLocalHost();
int SetLocalHost(QString qsLocalHost);

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the IP address of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface. It is recommended to provide an IP address rather than a hostname when setting this property to ensure the desired interface is used.

If the class is connected, the LocalHost property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

Note: LocalHost is not persistent. You must always set it in code, and never in the property window.

Data Type

String

MailPort Property (POP Class)

This property includes the server port for POP (default 110).

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property specifies the IP address (IP number in dotted internet format) or the domain name of the mail server. It is set before a connection is attempted and cannot be changed once a connection is in progress.

If this property is set to a domain name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, this property is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, the class fails with an error.

If the class is configured to use a SOCKS firewall, the value assigned to this property may be preceded with an "*". If this is the case, the host name is passed to the firewall unresolved and the firewall performs the DNS resolution.

SSLEnabled Property (POP Class)

This property indicates whether Transport Layer Security/Secure Sockets Layer (TLS/SSL) is enabled.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetSSLEnabled();
int SetSSLEnabled(int bSSLEnabled);

Unicode (Windows)
BOOL GetSSLEnabled();
INT SetSSLEnabled(BOOL bSSLEnabled);

int ipworks_pop_getsslenabled(void* lpObj);
int ipworks_pop_setsslenabled(void* lpObj, int bSSLEnabled);

bool GetSSLEnabled();
int SetSSLEnabled(bool bSSLEnabled);

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

This property specifies whether TLS/SSL is enabled in the class. When False (default), the class operates in plaintext mode. When True, TLS/SSL is enabled.

TLS/SSL may also be enabled by setting SSLStartMode. Setting SSLStartMode will automatically update this property value.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

SSLProvider Property (POP Class)

The Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) implementation to use.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetSSLProvider();
int SetSSLProvider(int iSSLProvider);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetSSLProvider();

int ipworks_pop_getsslprovider(void* lpObj);
int ipworks_pop_setsslprovider(void* lpObj, int iSSLProvider);

int GetSSLProvider();
int SetSSLProvider(int iSSLProvider);

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use. In most cases the default value of 0 (Automatic) is recommended and should not be changed. When set to 0 (Automatic), the class will select whether to use the platform implementation or the internal implementation depending on the operating system as well as the TLS version being used.

Possible values are as follows:

In most cases using the default value (Automatic) is recommended. The class will select a provider depending on the current platform.

When Automatic is selected, on Windows, the class will use the platform implementation. On Linux/macOS, the class will use the internal implementation. When TLS 1.3 is enabled via SSLEnabledProtocols, the internal implementation is used on all platforms.

SSLStartMode Property (POP Class)

This property determines how the class starts the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) negotiation.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetSSLStartMode();
int SetSSLStartMode(int iSSLStartMode);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetSSLStartMode();
INT SetSSLStartMode(INT iSSLStartMode);

Remarks

The SSLStartMode property may have one of the following values:

Data Type

Integer

Timeout Property (POP Class)

The timeout for the class.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetTimeout();
int SetTimeout(int iTimeout);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetTimeout();
INT SetTimeout(INT iTimeout);

int ipworks_pop_gettimeout(void* lpObj);
int ipworks_pop_settimeout(void* lpObj, int iTimeout);

int GetTimeout();
int SetTimeout(int iTimeout);

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, the class will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The class will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not freeze and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the class fails with an error.

Note: By default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, that is, the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

Data Type

Integer

User Property (POP Class)

This property includes the user identifier for the mailbox.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetUser();
int SetUser(const char* lpszUser);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR GetUser();
INT SetUser(LPCWSTR lpszUser);

char* ipworks_pop_getuser(void* lpObj);
int ipworks_pop_setuser(void* lpObj, const char* lpszUser);

QString GetUser();
int SetUser(QString qsUser);

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property contains the user identifier for the mailbox. This property must be set before the class connects to the MailServer.

Data Type

String

Config Method (POP Class)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* Config(const char* lpszConfigurationString);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR Config(LPCWSTR lpszConfigurationString);

char* ipworks_pop_config(void* lpObj, const char* lpszConfigurationString);

QString Config(const QString& qsConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a String value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

Connect Method (POP Class)

This method connects to the mail server and attempts to log in.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int Connect();

Unicode (Windows)
INT Connect();

int ipworks_pop_connect(void* lpObj);

int Connect();

Remarks

This method connects to the mail server and attempts to log in using the current User and Password. Then it retrieves the initial statistics about the mailbox contents (MessageCount and QueryTotalSize).

Example. Connect to POP Mailbox:

POPControl.MailServer = "MyPOPServer" POPControl.User = "username" POPControl.Password = "password" POPControl.Connect() POPControl.MessageNumber = 1 POPControl.Retrieve() MessageText = POPControl.MessageText MessageHeaders = POPControl.MessageHeaders

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

Delete Method (POP Class)

This method deletes a message specified by MessageNumber on the server.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int Delete();

Unicode (Windows)
INT Delete();

int ipworks_pop_delete(void* lpObj);

int Delete();

Remarks

This method asks the MailServer to delete the message specified by MessageNumber. The message will not actually be deleted from the server until the connection is closed. To cancel a previous Delete, use the Reset method.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

Disconnect Method (POP Class)

This method disconnects from the mail server.

• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int64 QueryMessageSize();

Unicode (Windows)
LONG64 QueryMessageSize();

int64 ipworks_pop_querymessagesize(void* lpObj);

qint64 QueryMessageSize();

Remarks

This method queries the server for the size in bytes of the message specified by MessageNumber. The method returns the size (in bytes) of the message.

If the class is not connected, or MessageNumber does not contain a valid message number, the return value is 0. Otherwise, it returns the size of the mail message (including headers) as reported by the server.

The MailServer is asked about the size of the message only if the MessageNumber property has changed. If MessageNumber has not changed, the class returns a cached value.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a Long64 value; after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.

QueryMessageUID Method (POP Class)

int ipworks_pop_setmessagestream(void* lpObj, IPWorksStream* sMessageStream);

int SetMessageStream(IPWorksStream* sMessageStream);

Remarks

This method sets the stream to which the message downloaded from the server will be written. If a download stream is set before the Retrieve method is called, the downloaded data will be written to the stream. The stream should be open and normally set to position 0. The class will automatically close this stream if CloseStreamAfterTransfer is set to True (default). If the stream is closed, you will need to call SetMessageStream again before calling Retrieve again. The downloaded content will be written starting at the current position in the stream.

Note: SetMessageStream and LocalFile will reset the other.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)

The ConnectionEvent parameter indicates the type of connection event. Values may include the following:

EndTransfer Event (POP Class)

This event is fired when the message completes transferring.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireEndTransfer(POPEndTransferEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int Direction;
  int reserved;
} POPEndTransferEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireEndTransfer(POPEndTransferEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  INT Direction;
  INT reserved;

#define EID_POP_ENDTRANSFER 2

virtual INT IPWORKS_CALL FireEndTransfer(INT &iDirection);

class POPEndTransferEventParams {
public:
  int Direction();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void EndTransfer(POPEndTransferEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass POP and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireEndTransfer(POPEndTransferEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The EndTransfer event is fired when the message body completes transferring from the server to the local host.

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

Error Event (POP Class)

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireError(POPErrorEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int ErrorCode;
  const char *Description;
  int reserved;
} POPErrorEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireError(POPErrorEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  INT ErrorCode;
  LPCWSTR Description;

};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void Error(POPErrorEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass POP and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireError(POPErrorEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the class fails with an error.

The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

Header Event (POP Class)

This event is fired for every message header being retrieved.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireHeader(POPHeaderEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *Field;
  const char *Value;

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireMessageList(POPMessageListEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int MessageNumber;

void MessageList(POPMessageListEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass POP and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireMessageList(POPMessageListEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

When ListMessageSizes is called, MessageSize is valid, and MessageUID is always an empty string.

When ListMessageUIDs is called, MessageUID is valid, and MessageSize is 0.

PITrail Event (POP Class)

This event traces the commands sent to the mail server, and the respective replies.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FirePITrail(POPPITrailEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int Direction;
  const char *Message;
  int reserved;
} POPPITrailEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FirePITrail(POPPITrailEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  INT Direction;
  LPCWSTR Message;
  INT reserved;
} POPPITrailEventParams;

#define EID_POP_PITRAIL 6

virtual INT IPWORKS_CALL FirePITrail(INT &iDirection, LPSTR &lpszMessage);

class POPPITrailEventParams {
public:
  int Direction();

  const QString &Message();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void PITrail(POPPITrailEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass POP and override this emitter function.
virtual int FirePITrail(POPPITrailEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The PITrail event is useful for debugging purposes. It shows all of the interaction between the client and the server, line by line, except for message header and body transfers.

The Message parameter contains the full text of the message. The Direction parameter shows the originator of the message:

SSLServerAuthentication Event (POP Class)

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireSSLServerAuthentication(POPSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *CertEncoded;
  int lenCertEncoded;
  const char *CertSubject;
  const char *CertIssuer;
  const char *Status;
  int Accept;
  int reserved;
} POPSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireSSLServerAuthentication(POPSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  LPCSTR CertEncoded;
  INT lenCertEncoded;
  LPCWSTR CertSubject;
  LPCWSTR CertIssuer;
  LPCWSTR Status;
  BOOL Accept;
  INT reserved;
} POPSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams;

#define EID_POP_SSLSERVERAUTHENTICATION 7

virtual INT IPWORKS_CALL FireSSLServerAuthentication(LPSTR &lpCertEncoded, INT &lenCertEncoded, LPSTR &lpszCertSubject, LPSTR &lpszCertIssuer, LPSTR &lpszStatus, BOOL &bAccept);

class POPSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams {
public:
  const QByteArray &CertEncoded();

  const QString &CertSubject();

  const QString &CertIssuer();

  const QString &Status();

  bool Accept();
  void SetAccept(bool bAccept);

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void SSLServerAuthentication(POPSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass POP and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireSSLServerAuthentication(POPSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

SSLStatus Event (POP Class)

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireSSLStatus(POPSSLStatusEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  const char *Message;
  int reserved;
} POPSSLStatusEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireSSLStatus(POPSSLStatusEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  LPCWSTR Message;
  INT reserved;
} POPSSLStatusEventParams;

#define EID_POP_SSLSTATUS 8

virtual INT IPWORKS_CALL FireSSLStatus(LPSTR &lpszMessage);

class POPSSLStatusEventParams {
public:
  const QString &Message();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void SSLStatus(POPSSLStatusEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass POP and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireSSLStatus(POPSSLStatusEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.

StartTransfer Event (POP Class)

This event is fired when the message starts transferring.

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireStartTransfer(POPStartTransferEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int Direction;
  int reserved;
} POPStartTransferEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireStartTransfer(POPStartTransferEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  INT Direction;
  INT reserved;
} POPStartTransferEventParams;

#define EID_POP_STARTTRANSFER 9

virtual INT IPWORKS_CALL FireStartTransfer(INT &iDirection);

class POPStartTransferEventParams {
public:
  int Direction();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void StartTransfer(POPStartTransferEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass POP and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireStartTransfer(POPStartTransferEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The StartTransfer event is fired when the message body starts transferring from the server to the local host.

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

Transfer Event (POP Class)

This event is fired when the message is transferred from MailServer .

Syntax

• C++
• C
• Qt

ANSI (Cross Platform)
virtual int FireTransfer(POPTransferEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  int Direction;
  int64 BytesTransferred;
  int PercentDone;
  const char *Text;
  int lenText;
  int EOL;
  int reserved;
} POPTransferEventParams;


Unicode (Windows)
virtual INT FireTransfer(POPTransferEventParams *e);

typedef struct {
  INT Direction;
  LONG64 BytesTransferred;
  INT PercentDone;
  LPCSTR Text;
  INT lenText;
  BOOL EOL;
  INT reserved;
} POPTransferEventParams;

#define EID_POP_TRANSFER 10

virtual INT IPWORKS_CALL FireTransfer(INT &iDirection, LONG64 &lBytesTransferred, INT &iPercentDone, LPSTR &lpText, INT &lenText, BOOL &bEOL);

class POPTransferEventParams {
public:
  int Direction();

  qint64 BytesTransferred();

  int PercentDone();

  const QByteArray &Text();

  bool EOL();

  int EventRetVal();
  void SetEventRetVal(int iRetVal);
};

// To handle, connect one or more slots to this signal.
void Transfer(POPTransferEventParams *e);

// Or, subclass POP and override this emitter function.
virtual int FireTransfer(POPTransferEventParams *e) {...}

Remarks

The Text parameter contains the portion of the message data to be retrieved.

The BytesTransferred parameter contains the number of bytes transferred since the beginning of the message, including header bytes. At the end of transmission (i.e., when the last Transfer event is fired), BytesTransferred equals the value of the QueryMessageSize method.

The Transfer event is fired for every line of the message. For complete lines, there is no terminating newline at the end of the Text parameter, and EOL is True. The EOL parameter is False when a line is broken (usually for being too long).

A faster way to retrieve a message is to assign a value to the LocalFile property and use the Transfer event to check the progress rather than to get the actual data.

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

The PercentDone parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If PercentDone can not be calculated the value will be -1.

Note: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.

Note: For the PercentDone parameter value to be correct, the GetMessageSize configuration setting must be set to True.

Certificate Type
