#AE.Net.Mail A C# POP/IMAP client library

##Sample Usage

#IMAP using(var imap = new AE.Net.Mail.ImapClient(host, username, password, AE.Net.Mail.ImapClient.AuthMethods.Login, port, isSSL)) { var msgs = imap.SearchMessages( SearchCondition.Undeleted().And( SearchCondition.From("david"), SearchCondition.SentSince(new DateTime(2000, 1, 1)) ).Or(SearchCondition.To("andy")) );

    Assert.AreEqual(msgs[0].Value.Subject, "This is cool!");

    imap.NewMessage += (sender, e) => {
      var msg = imap.GetMessage(e.MessageCount - 1);
      Assert.AreEqual(msg.Subject, "IDLE support?  Yes, please!");
    };

    while (!mre.WaitOne(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(20)) {
      imap.Noop();
    }
}

#POP using(var pop = new AE.Net.Mail.Pop3Client(host, username, password, port, isSSL)) { for(var i = pop.GetMessageCount() - 1; i >= 0; i--){ var msg = pop.GetMessage(i, false); Assert.AreEqual(msg.Subject, "Standard API between different protocols? Yes, please!"); pop.DeleteMessage(i); //WE DON'T NEED NO STINKIN' EMAIL! } }

##Background These are text-based services... it's not that hard, and yet all the projects I found out there were nasty, bloated, and severely error prone. So, I rebuilt one. This is based heavily on xemail-net. I simplified it quite a bit, and created standard methods for repeated code blocks and implemented a base class to simplify the creation of the Pop3 client.

The SecureSocket library from Mentalis (http://www.mentalis.org/soft/projects/ssocket/) is embed in this project for SSL support.
