RE: POP server direct access

[Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Have you tried using iconv() instead of QDCXLATE?  In my experience,
it works a little better.   I also believe that it is what the
open()/read() APIs use when they do the conversion for you.

If you used sockets, and connected to the POP3 server, wouldn't it then
send the data to you in 7-bit ASCII?  At least, I thought that's what the
RFC required POP servers to do (but it's been a long time since I read it)

Or wouldn't that help?
