libspopc
libspopc is an easy-to-use POP3 client library written in C. It implements the client side of RFC 1939, providing an easy and quick way to support POP3 and POP3s (SSL) access in a program. It can download email headers and delete messages remotely without actualy downloading the message.

Recent releases
- 23 Mar 2009 16:09
Changes: This version contains some bugfixes for the case in which either a network problem occurred or the default timeout was reached without the server responding.
- 04 Feb 2009 19:03
Changes: This version includes a minor bugfix related to conditional build when SSL support is disabled.
- 31 Jan 2009 06:41
Changes: This version re-enables the long-disabled send and recv timeouts (set to 15s), with a new method that allow timeouts with SSL. It adds a way to control the synchronization of the session object with the server state. It also adds direct access to message numbers in the session object. The manual and the example programs have been updated. The code has been cleaned up.

Changes: This version fixes bugs, particularly a big one in poplast(), which did not return the last stored email 'id' in some cases. Re-entrant code and a set of init functions (new API) have been added, but are not enabled by default (see Makefile). An OpenVMS build script has been added (see vms/). The API has changed. It is strongly encouraged to update old programs to use the initialization routines (see doc/manual.txt) and enable re-entrancy in libspopc (see Makefile).
- 12 Dec 2008 19:27
Changes: When built upon OpenSSL, this version provides 3 new functions that allow the programmer to force the use of SSL on any TCP port, or disable the use of SSL even on port 995. The default behavior is the same as previous versions: using SSL automatically only on port 995.
