PowerTCP Mail Tool
The SMTP Control sends mail, the POP Control downloads mail, the
IMAP Control manages mail on the server, and the Message object
encodes/decodes your mail on-the-fly. If you have experienced the
pain of dealing with multi-part MIME messages, you'll appreciate
our new Message object!
- SMTP Control - Use this control to send messages to any
SMTP server. Enhanced SMTP commands are automatically supported.
A message can even be constructed and sent with one line of code.
- POP Control - Use this control to download messages from
any POP3 server. By default, all messages are downloaded into
a single collection of message objects!
- IMAP Control - Use this control to manage and download
messages from any IMAP4 server. A local object model makes remote
mail management easy, with no knowledge of IMAP4 commands required!
- Mail Object - Accepts any MIME message and decodes it
into an object representation you can easily deal with. Performs
encoding too!

this product a real performer for messages buffered in memory.
- One method call builds and sends a message.
