Overview
The Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) is an application
protocol which is used to access a user's email messages which are
stored on a mail server. However, unlike the Post Office Protocol
(POP) where messages are downloaded and processed on the local
system, the messages on an IMAP server are retained on the server and
processed remotely. This is ideal for users who need access to a
centralized store of messages or have limited bandwidth. For example,
traveling salesmen who have notebook computers or mobile users on a
wireless network would be ideal candidates for using IMAP.
The SocketTools IMAP library implements the current standard for
this protocol, and provides functions to retrieve messages, or just
certain parts of a message, create and manage mailboxes, search for
specific messages based on certain criteria and so on. The API is
designed as a superset of the Post Office Protocol API, so developers
who are used to working with the POP3 library will find the IMAP
library very easy to integrate into an existing application.
This library supports secure connections using the standard SSL
and TLS protocols.
Requirements
The SocketTools Library Edition libraries are compatible with any
programming language which supports calling functions exported from a
standard dynamic link library (DLL). If you are using Visual C++ 6.0
it is required that you have Service Pack 6 (SP6) installed. You should
install all updates for your development tools and have the current
Windows SDK installed. The minimum recommended version of Visual Studio
is Visual Studio 2010.
This library is supported on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2 and
later versions of the desktop and server platforms. If you are using
Windows 7, you must have Service Pack 1 (SP1) installed as a minimum
requirement. It is recommended that you install the current service
pack and all critical updates available for your version of the
operating system.
This product includes both 32-bit and 64-bit libraries. Native
64-bit CPU support requires the 64-bit version of Windows 7 or later
versions of the Windows operating system.
Distribution
When you distribute your application that uses this library, it is
recommended that you install the file in the same folder as your
application executable. If you install the library into a shared
location on the system, it is important that you distribute the
correct version for the target platform and it should be registered
as a shared DLL. This is a standard Windows dynamic link library, not
an ActiveX component, and does not require COM registration.
