Hello,

is there a way in vdsipp.dll pop3 client protocol to get the whole mail at once?

The helpfile says to INTERNET POP3,GETMAIL,<pop3 client>,<msg number>:"... The e-mail will then be placed inside an internal buffer, where you can use functions such as @INTERNET(POP3,FROM) etc. to retrieve the e-mails contents."

Unfortunately there is no function to get the message as it is.

Maybe it's possible to access that mentioned internal buffer directly?

I'm writing on a mailserver-module as part of a spamfilter application and at the moment i'm using vdsinet.dll to fetch mails, but this is not a real option because it seems not to have a timeout frunction, so if the connection breaks down, you have to kill the task. Furthermore vdsinet pop3 uses the TOP command instead of RETR to get the mails, so it's not warranted, that it works with all pop3-servers.

Thanks for your ideas.

Unfortunately no the raw contents arent saved to disk. I never thought to add this feature into the dll. The dll is no longer updated but I do include the full source code; with a copy of Delphi 6/7 you can update the dll to add in the feature.

Thats very kindly PGWARE,

but i'm not able to do that by myself. I have no idea how difficult this would be but maybe one of the many dll-developers around here could do that.

You made a great extension to VDS. Thanks a lot.
