deleting email

 [1/5] from: jelinem1:nationwide at: 18-Sep-2000 13:44


The pop:// protocol stuff reads email very well, and I'm very happy with it. My email client is broken on my computer at home and instead of pulling all my beautiful hair out trying to beat the MS crap into submission, I've got a real neat idea of creating a REBOL program to keep its own email database and generate a web front-end and voila! a platform independant email client. The only piece I don't yet know is how to delete an email item from the host POP server. Anyone know? - Michael Jelinek

Just use 'remove on the opened port, like you would with any series. (Absolutely not tested) code for deleting the 4th message in your mailbox: p: open pop://username:[passwd--mail--wherever--com] remove at p 4 close p Hope this is what you asked for (since I have a great track record of misunderstanding what people actually want) :-) Kind regards, -- Ole Friis <[ole_f--post3--tele--dk]> Amiga is a trademark of Amiga Inc.

Project Rebmail is similarly a neat idea for a email client but unfortunately (AFAIK) doesn't exist as a useable program yet. http://www.egroups.com/group/Rebmail Brett.
