    1. CONo, actually you said worse things, you raised suspicions that the POP 3 class could be stealing user passwords. What I am telling you is that it would be silly if the class did that because it is Open Source and anybody can look at the code and see that it does not do anything malicious. As for your claim that the class does not have developers working on it, just check Freshmeat and see that both the POP 3 and MIME parser classes had many regular updates over the years to address bugs and user wishes. http://freshmeat.net/projects/pop3class http://freshmeat.net/projects/phpmimemaildecoder

    2. CO@Endophage, there is some confusion here. The POP3 class has been published as Open Source since 1999 when it was released. Since it is written in PHP, anybody can see it does NOT steal any user details. Claiming that that a provel PHP Open Source class is insecure, just makes evident that you never seen it and still making judgements about it. That is prejudice to me. FYI, the site recorded 39,000 registered users have downloaded the class. There are no claims that it is insecure. Otherwise I would like to know.

    3. CO@Endophage there is nothing unresponsive now in the site. It seems your prejudice. Anyway, the site itself does not matter. I am talking as the developer of the POP3 and MIME parser classes. I use them in my projects, so I eat my own dog food. The fact is that classes do not depend on any non-standard PHP extension and can deal with arbitrarily long messages without exceeding PHP memory limits. You may not be able to do that with the PECL extension. The POP3 class itself even provide streams support, so you can access messages like file, for instance using fopen('pop3://user@password:server'..
