MAIL/NET

Mabrys Mail/NET was made from scratch for Microsofts .Net platform - continues Mabrys tradition of providing highly functional and easy to use components which push the boundaries of whats required of internet components.

Mail/NET contains Smtp/NET, Pop/NET, and Mime/NET. All three of those objects fully support Microsofts synchronous and asynchronous programming models. Unlike other vendors who have - for instance - separate components for sending simple email and email with attachments, Mabrys design neatly encapsulates all of the required functionality into a small number of well-designed components. Smtp/NET, Pop/NET and Mime/NET all provide features not seen in other email components.

Mime/NET, for instance, parses messages on the fly as they are received - there is no delay between receiving a message and being able to access it or any of its attachments. Mime/NET also encodes binary attachments as they are being transmitted, thus avoiding lengthy delays that are encountered with components that require that you encode attachments prior to transmission. Mime/NET provides the easiest to use access to parts, which may have nested parts, of any MIME component you will find.

Smtp/NET has a number of unique features, including a number of methods which make creating and sending simple email, HTML email, and email with attachments very easy. A single method can be used to send email, either with or without an attachment. The following method sends a simple text message:

smtp.SendMail("from@mabry.com", "you@somewhere.com",
"subject", "message text", 10);
Including a file attachment is as simple as including another argument:

FileStream fs =
new FileStream("C:\\test.exe", FileMode.Open);
smtp.SendMail("from@mabry.com", "you@somewhere.com",
"subject", "theres something attached", fs, 10);
Like Smtp/NET, Pop/NET provides a number of useful features including the ability to download headers only and automatic population of the InBoxs Message collection when connecting to a POP3 server. Retrieving messages is made simple by the RetrieveMessages(IEnumerable Messages, int Timeout) method. Using that method you may download any number of messages.

When you buy Mail/NET you get a complete set of email components designed especially for the .Net framework. Compare Mail/NET with the offerings of other vendors and you will see that Mabrys Mail/NET is the best solution available.
