NetReceive*400
provides the ability to
receive email messages stored on a POP3 server that in turn can be processed by an
application. NetReceive incorporates its own POP3 client software and
does not require any POP3 software support on the AS/400. With NetReceive
you can receive email messages, with or without attachments, from any POP3
mailbox. This includes many popular email applications including but not
limited to Netscape, Microsoft’s Exchange, and LotusNotes/Domino.
NetReceive
supports the receipt of attachments that can
be easily used by an AS/400 application. The file attachment is saved to the
IFS folder structure. You can specify the folder the attachments are saved
to.
NetReceive
provides Interactive, Command, and Application
Program Interfaces to receive mail messages. These options give you complete
flexibility in the way you pull messages. If you want to incorporate the
receiving of email capability in your existing or new applications, you can
use the email APIs provided with NetReceive.
You can use the NETRECEIVE command to receive email from a command
interface. All of the interfaces support receiving messages with
attachments. NetReceive also allows you to keep
the messages on the POP3 server or delete them, whichever fits with your
corporate strategy.
System
Requirements
NetReceive
To receive email messages NetReceive
connects with a POP3 mail server and initiates the POP3 mail
receive protocol. This means that your AS/400 must have local or network
access to a POP3 mail server application. This can be any POP3 mail server
such as Microsoft Exchange, Lotus Notes, Infinite Technologies Interchange,
UNIX mail, an Internet Service Provider (ISP) mail application, NetMail*400’s
POP3 Server or the Native IBM POP3 mail server on the AS/400. NetReceive
is compatible with any POP3 mail server that follows the RFC rules for POP3
servers.
