Hi,
When calling pop3.Login(accountName, password), does the accountName have to contain a complete email address, or is it ok to use only the user name portion of the address?
eg: Do I have to use bob@someDomain.com
or can the pop3.Login() method be called passing in only "bob" ?

This depends on configuration of the mail server you use. Some servers require full email address supplied as login, while others need username only. If you're unsure about your mail server settings, try both ways to find out which one is acceptable in your case.
Regards,
Igor

Thanks Igor,
A quick telnet session on port 110 confirmed this. It seems the pop3 server is configured to only accept the complete user@domainName format.
Thanks for the information. :)
