This is close to what I tried. This is part of my code
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "pop3://pop.gmail.com:995");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_USE_SSL, CURLUSESSL_ALL);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_USERNAME, "my_userid");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PASSWORD, "my_password");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, write_data); /* write_data is my callback function */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_WRITEDATA, &response);
curl_easy_perform(curl);This is what I observe when I run the code
* About to connect() to pop.gmail.com port 995 (#0)
* Trying 209.85.225.108... * connected
* response reading failed
> QUIT
* response reading failed
* Closing connection #0
response reading failedI am using the same callback function that I use for the http protocol where it works fine.
This is the function.static int write_data(char *data, size_t size, size_t nmemb, std::string *buffer)
{
 int result = 0;
 if (buffer != NULL)
 {
  buffer->append(data, size * nmemb);
  result = size * nmemb;
 }
 return result;
}paschal.
