I am actually working on a mailer and, to test without
nagging the pop3 server, I use:
fake-email: import-email read %message####.txt
where message####.txt is a file used to "store" the full
mail message as it was on the pop3 server:
box: open pop://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
msgnumb: 1
while [not tail? box] [
msgfull: first box
; ****** You don't need this
; msg: import-email msgfull
write to-file rejoin ["message" msgnumb ".txt"] msgfull
box: next box
msgnumb: msgnumb + 1
]
or, even better, you can copy the mailbox in its actual
"state" (untested):
box: open pop://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
while [not tail? box] [
msgfull: first box
write/append %mailbox.txt msgfull
box: next box
]
Hope this helps
