VB6-JACMail2 Email Client

$

0
<P>JACMail Version 2 is very similar to Version 1 on the surface. Under the hood however, there have been substantial changes. JACMail is an Email Client Program designed to allow fast and efficient recovery of email from a POP3 server, and the sending of email through an SMTP server. It is primarily oriented towards text based messaging with attachments, and does not directly support highly formatted HTML based email or embedded objects. It receives and stores both text/plain and text/html messages, and Web based emails (HTML) can be sent to your default browser for viewing. It also supports Plain Authentication based POP3 and multiple mailboxes. The mailboxes are stored in an Access database utilising ODBC.
</P>
<P>The code uses IP Version independent system calls, so it will only work on Windows systems that actively support both IPv4 and IPv6. That more or less restricts it to Windows Vista or later. It has been tested on Windows Vista, Win 7, and Win 8.1, and utilises the following standard components and references:<BR>
RICHED32.DLL<BR>
RICHTX32.OCX<BR>
COMDLG32.OCX<BR>
MSSTDFMT.DLL<BR>
MSBIND.DLL<BR>
MSADODC.OCX<BR>
MSDATGRD.OCX<BR>
which the user must have available in order to compile the program.
</P>
<P>Unlike Version 1, this version is Unicode comapatible. It is NOT Unicode compliant. Email still requires ASCII.
</P>
<P>Version 2 supports message encryption. Although any JACMail2 Client can receive and decrypt messages sent by JACMail2, the sending of encrypted messages requires a server component (posted as a separate item).
