Enhancements:

• POP3 support - POP3 support enables receiving e-mail messages from any POP3 mail server;
• Performance - Improved performance for large mail bodies and large attachments;
• Unicode - ActiveEmail now supports Unicode messages. This applies to outgoing (SMTP) messages and incoming (POP3) messages;
• Encoding - ActiveEmail now supports foreign character sets, including Arabic (iso-8859-6), Japanese (iso-2022-jp), Chinese (big5) and many more;
• Authentication - ActiveEmail now supports several authentication mechanisms. By default, ActiveEmail uses auto-detection to negotiate an authentication mechanism. You can also force ActiveEmail to use a specific authentication mechanism. This applies to SMTP and POP3;
• Object oriented approach - ActiveEmail has now a more object oriented approach. The SmtpMail object does not exist anymore; it is split up into two different objects: SmtpServer and SmtpMail. Existing users must make a small modification to their code to adapt to this change. Two new objects provide an interface to the POP3 protocol: Pop3Server and Pop3Mail;
• NNTP - NNTP is not supported anymore in v3.0. It was rarely used by customers, and not supported anymore in the new version.
