Just to clarify you submit the URL as:

pop3://user:password_at_mail.domain.com/mailbox - where mailbox is the message
id

I'm updating curl_easy_setopt.3 as we speak to give this example as it is
another URL example that includes the path that I have already started to
document.

Kind Regards

Steve
