for those without an account, I pasted the solution's code here :

Jacco:I got it :-)

You have to do a lot correctly though. Here are the steps:

1. Start a new Delphi project (I used Delphi 7 with Indy 10)

2. You have to download the SSL dlls from this site:

[URL unfurl="true"]http://indy.fulgan.com/SSL/indy_OpenSSL096m.zip[/URL]

3. Unzip the file and put libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll in your projects path.

4. Replace the code of Unit1.pas and Unit1.dfm with the code below

5. Change the Username and Password properties on the POP3 component to match those of your GMAIL account.

6. Run and it will show you one message of the GMAIL account

(Doesn't work? Then the settings of you gmail account are probably incorrect. I have set them to "Enable POP for all mail (even mail that's already been downloaded)" "Keep GMail's copy in the inbox")

The hartdest part of getting this to work was getting the utUseImplicitTLS of to POP3 component.

Good luck.

If you're sneaky, find the EE page using Google. Then look at Google's cached page. Scroll down the page and all the hidden stuff shows up at the bottom.

Thank You, But In order to complete it, I need to know how to send an email via SMTP, and I want to make a splitter in my program like those of Thunderbird or Outlook.

I have tried to use splitter tool, but I don't know how to use it.

Do you know ?
Thanks for any reply.

For a splitter to work, you must set it up in the initial form creation in the IDE, and in the correct order. It is difficult to insert splitters into an existing form that already has several visual components.

For a horizontal splitter:
[ol]
[li]Drop a TPanel on a blank form.[/li]
[li]Set its align property to alTop.[/li]
[li]Drop a TSplitter on the form (not the panel).[/li]
[li]Set its align property to alTop.[/li]
[li]Drop another TPanel near the bottom of the form.[/li]
[li]Set its align property to alClient.[/li]
[li]Run it to verify it works.[/li]
[li]Optionally, save it to the repository as a template.[/li]
[li]Add your visual components to the appropriate panels.[/li]
[/ol]
You can also nest additional split panels within the two panels you've created.
Good luck!
