Hello,

As logn as I know that there is no free POP3 email component. Even for JMail, that component is not free for POP3 function.

Anybody has pure ASP code to access POP3 mail server? Or Any body has free POP3 component? Or 'P' version also can, is only for personal use.

Thanks.

There is no such thing. Neither the Windows Scripting engine nor the ASP environment have intrinsic access to the TCP/IP stack. You must use an ActiveX control to perform TCP/IP activity from ASP.

The POP3 protocol without support for attachments is fairly simple to implement. You could author your own component if you can’t find a free one. Even adding support for attachments is not overly complex.
