The Marshallsoft SMTP/POP3/IMAP Email component library for Xbase++ (SEE4XB) is a library of functions providing easy control of the SMTP (Simple Mail Transport Protocol) and POP3 (Post Office 3) protocols.

The SMTP/POP3/IMAP Email development toolkit provides a simple interface to send and receive email, including multiple MIME base64 and quoted-printable encoded attachments from within a Xbase++ application. Knowledge of Winsock and TCP/IP is not needed.

SEE4XB provides the functionality to easily and quickly develop software applications that can send, receive and parse mail.

Some of the many features of the SMTP/POP3/IMAP Email Component Library for Xbase++ (SEE4XB) are as follows:

• Works with servers requiring SSL with (free) STUNNEL proxy server.

• Free technical support and updates for one year.
• Royalty free distribution with your compiled application.
• Evaluation version is fully functional. No unlock code is required.
• Can be used with any language (C/C++, VC++, Delphi, VB, Visual Foxpro, Visual Basic, etc.) that can call the Windows API.
• Complete documentation (Programmers, Users, and Reference Manuals).

A good selection of complete example programs is included demonstrating how to send and receive email using the library. The SEE4XB library can also be used with any Windows application capable of calling the Windows API.

The SMTP/POP3/IMAP Email Component Library for Xbase++ supports all versions of Alaska Xbase++.

The SMTP/POP3/IMAP Email SDK (SEE) can be used in the development of Win32 applications running under 32-bit and 64-bit Windows through Windows 11. The evaluation version of SEE4XB is fully functional. Registration is $119 for email delivery and includes one year of free updates.

Our libraries (DLL's) are developer toolkits that can be used by programs written in all supported computer languages. Purchase a developer license for a specific product for one software language and use the same registered DLLs with all other supported languages for that product (i.e., purchase SEE4XB and use the DLL with SEE4C). All versions of SEE use the same DLLs (SEE32.DLL or SEE64.DLL). However, the examples provided for each version were developed and tested using the specified computer programming language.
