WeOnlyDo! ImapServer COM Object and ActiveX control (15% discount)

If you're in search of an efficient method of accessing electronic mail or bulletin board messages kept on a shared mail server, IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) is the answer! IMAP allows a 'client' email program to access remote message stores as if they were local. To implement IMAP, developers should opt for wodImapServer, which is an IMAP4rev1 implementation as defined by RFC2060.

Since wodImapServer is just a COM object rather than a full-fledged application, developers must keep UID information (UNIQUE ID) for folders and messages to ensure smooth functioning with any client that connects to it. Any client action will trigger an appropriate event that developers can handle and return positive or negative results. It's also necessary to deal with message flags.

Additionally, wodImapServer does not deal with message storage - developers have to deal with it themselves. The tool will deal only with folder and message structure and references. Actual message content cannot be handled by wodImapServer; instead, it will depend on developers' code when messages are accessed, hoping that they've formatted messages and flag information correctly. If not, it will not complain, but IMAP clients might face problems.
