Hi Progress people,
I have a requirement to implement a system that
* monitors an e-mail account
* downloads and save the e-mail body text
* strips out the attachments and decodes them.
Have any of you attempted such a thing in Progress?
I have knocked up a rough proof of concept implementing the POP protocol with SSL using progress sockets but one issue I have found is that not all e-mail servers have the same POP features available so it looks like any attempt to implement POP will result in code that isn't robust.
Any tips, links, advice or sample code would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris Low.
