page for a Newer, Simpler-to-Use, Higher Level API. |
The Post Office Protocol (POP), provides a way for a server machine to store mail for various client machines that are not continuously connected to the Internet or are behind a company's firewall. E-mail is held in the POP server until you login and retrieve it using a POP client. The Distinct POP client component allows you to write customized POP client applications to directly retrieve, read, store or delete mail in private mail boxes. Firewall support is embedded so that users who would like, for security reasons, to connect to the POP server through a firewall proxy may do so.
See also SMTP, MIME, and IMAP.
RFC Compliance
All Distinct custom controls are implemented following current RFCs. The Distinct POP client component is compliant with RFC 1082, 1081, 1725 and 1734.
