    Mta c/c++ api??

    Hello all,

    Currently looking C / C++ libraries (or an API or SDK) that will access SMTP, IMAP, POP3 to work under Linux.

    Does such an animal exist? I have googled and have seen *many* things for Windows but nothing for Linux.

    Best Regards, Kasey

    I am very happy with libspopc for accessing POP3 servers.
    https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/libspopc/

    For the others, GNU offers quite a package.
    GNU Mailutils - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)
    Debian GNU/Linux -- You know you want it.

    Hello and thanks for responding.

    I went to the savannah project and saw the following:
    It does not handle mail file parsing, but just provides a session-based or a socket-based interface for email transfert.

    Would you happen to know of an API that does parsing as well? The idea is to use it as part of C/C++ coding.

    TIA

    Mailutils is pretty complete. It should include a parser.
