Reading email

And you thought that would be easy.

If you have ever written a program to receive email (not just pick it up from a POP server), you know just how painful that can be. If you wrote the program in Java, you know this even better.

The world just got better:

This package is just as simple as reading email should be. Your program decides whether to receive the email and then it gets it. The interface is tiny and it looks like they handle enough of the standards to really work.

Whew.
