Gets or sets whether the connection uses SSL/TLS (secure socket layer).
[Visual Basic 6.0] Public Property Get SSLConnection() As Boolean Public Property Let SSLConnection( newVal As Boolean)
[Visual C++] public: get_SSLConnection(VARIANT_BOOL* pVal); public: put_SSLConnection(VARIANT_BOOL newVal);
Property Value
TLS 1.2 Encryption
TLS is the successor of SSL, EAGetMail supports SSL 3.0/TLS1.0 - 1.2 very well. In EAGetMail, ConnectTLS doesn't mean TLS encryption, it means TLS command POP3/IMAP protocol.
You don't have to set any property to enable TLS 1.2 encryption. If your server requires TLS 1.2 encryption, TLS 1.2 encryption is used automatically with ConnectTLS, ConnectSSL or ConnectSSLAuto.
Example
[Visual Basic 6.0, VBScript, Visual C++] The following example demonstrates how to receive email with EAGetMail POP3 & IMAP ActiveX Object, but it doesn't demonstrates the events and mail parsing usage. To get the full samples of EAGetMail, please refer to Samples section.
