0 Bamsebjørn Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Heheh... I need to implement SSL/Pop3 and SMTP in VB6. I've come as far as connecting to the Pop3 server, sending ClientHello, receiving ServerHello... Takes a lot of API calls to accomplish this. There are libraries availailable for .NET too... I think one is called SecureBlackbox... but it'll cost you money. I haven't found free samples (yet)...

0 Leo Natan Posted February 23, 2006 Author Share Posted February 23, 2006 OK, so i've found the SslStream class new to .NET, but for some reason it's very slow... It takes ages to get an OK message just from "user ..." command. Any ideas?
