Hi All, I'm pleased to let everyone know that I have now successfully developed a console application (it does NOT use the UI framework!) that can access various email accounts, recurse through all the folders, get all the headers, then get the message bodies, and even gets notified properly when one of the folders has a change, etc. - and I even have my c++ wrapper library that sits on top of all this to present a simple API (via my c++ Email class) for our applications to use. So here's my only problem right now - I was doing some testing with different kinds of email servers, for both receiving emails, as well as sending out emails - and I'm having a bit of trouble getting access to Yahoo's POP mail server. I have a Yahoo PLUS account, which allows me to use my own email client to get my Yahoo emails - in fact, it works just fine with my Thunderbird email client. For sending emails, I have been able to successfully use either my Comcast SMTP server or Googles Gmail SMTP server. For receiving emails, I have been successful in using Google's IMAP server. But when trying to receive emails from my Yahoo POP account, the authentication just will not work - and I've tried configuring my account store with different options. In Thunderbird, you just set the following information: server name: pop.mail.yahoo.com server port: 110 user name: <my yahoo username> security settings: none For my account store (and I've tried doing this with TMut, too), I've tried to set the authentication method to "LOGIN", as well as blank (""), and I've tried setting the options to "ssl=never", etc. - but nothing seems to allow the authentication to occur properly. Any suggestions from anyone? Could someone try to get connected to the Yahoo POP3 server and tell me how you accomplished it? Thank you! - Steve Rosen |
