How to open and read e-mails

[Momergil]

Hello!

Some time ago I needed to make an app that was capable of sending e-mails to a given e-mail account. After some research I found the "SMTP Client for Qt" library in the public domain and it served my quite well for this purpose.

What now I would like to know is how can I read e-mails sended to my software, that is, I create a e-mail account in gmail or hotmail or else "my_app@gmail.com" and than my software logs into this account and reads new e-mails it received.


Thanks,


Momergil

You have to use protocols like POP3 / IMAP which ever is enabled by the email server (I guess pop.gmail.com / smtp.gmail.com), and log into the server and download the e-mails.

Thanks!

Any practical solutions for this, though? I mean, some kind of Qt library or steps in order to implement this.
