INFO

Overview

SidePOP allows you to retrieve email very easily from a POP3 account. SidePOP is one DLL (with a dependency on log4net) and a simple configuration that allows you to enhance your applications by giving them the gift of receiving email.

SidePOP has an easy configuration - it's the same settings you need to set up email on your phone or in a mail client to check your email. Then all you do is subscribe to the events and you are good. It can't get much harder than that.

WARNING: SidePOP will delete your email when it checks it. That’s how it can be sure it’s only dealing with new messages every time. Do not test on an account you care about. You’ve been warned.

NOTE: This is in alpha so I expect possible bugs. Please make sure you register bugs so they can be fixed: Submit Issues
