Provides a POP3 class to access POP3 servers. Supports all POP3 commands including UIDL listings and APOP authentication.
Usage of this class compared to native PHP extensions such as IMAP is slow and may be feature deficient. If available you are STRONGLY recommended to use the PHP extensions.
Usage
<?php
include 'Net/POP3.php';
$pop3 =& new Net_POP3();
/*
* Connect to localhost on usual port
* If not given, defaults are localhost:110
*/
$pop3->connect('localhost', 110);
/*
* Login using username/password. APOP will
* be tried first if supported, then basic.
*/
$pop3->login('richard', 'Alien3');
/*
* Get the raw headers of message 1
*/
echo '<h2>getRawHeaders()</h2>';
echo '<pre>' . htmlspecialchars($pop3->getRawHeaders(1)) . '</pre>';

print_r($pop3->getParsedHeaders(1));
