SMTP/POP3 MFC classes

Wes Clyburn already wrote an SMTP class that sent mails which were stored in CMailMessage entities. Look at his entry on the Codeguru site for details.

I took these classes and added a POP3 class, based on Wes’ CSMTP class. For this, I slightly modified

CMailMessage and CSMTP.

Now you can create a message in a CMailMessage class, send it using Wes’ CSMTP. Or you

can retrieve mails using my CPOP3 class, which stores the mails in a CMailMessage object.

However, I still had some troubles parsing the headers of retrieved mails:

1. The Cc: field can contain several lines. CPOP3 only parses the first one.

     Cc: recipient1 
         recipient2 
         recipient3 
         recipient4 
   

   In this case, CPOP3 only finds “recipient1”.

2. The Date: field isn’t parsed at all – there are different possible date formats.

Maybe I’ll add those features later ?

Thanks, Wes, for the good base you provided !
