MailBee.NET IMAP Component 3.0

MailBee.NET IMAP downloads messages in a batch, drastically improving performance. MailBee.NET IMAP bundle includes a set of MIME objects such as MailMessage and Attachment which are used for e-mail parsing.

Written in 100% managed code, MailBee.NET IMAP only requires the .NET framework be installed on the computer. MailBee.NET IMAP can be used in any .NET language including C# and VB.NET. Both .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0 are supported.
