Purpose:             After using Outlook clone mailer and being virus-infected,
                     it was decided to make a simple program which does not
                     do any action which user is not aware of.
Note:                Perhaps no program can make full guarantee against virus or other
                     intrudance threat because program may call 
                     operating system modules (like Winsock)
                     or modules belonging development language, and
                     such modules may be vulnerable 
                     themselves (for example for buffer overflow.) 
                     SafeMail was developed in Microsoft Visual Basic 6.



What SafeMail does:
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

     Takes mail "as is" from (POP3 server) and saves it 
     in Application Forlder "as is".
     User can set Interval for mail to be periodically checked.
     To Veiw, Delete, Cut, Paste mail, and Creating new MailBoxes,
        user can go to menu/View
        and use mouse-right-click-menu.
     
     SafeMail does not attempt to "open" or "execute" mail.

     One user can be memorized in preferences. Password saving on disk is optional.

     Single or all messages received by SafeMail still can be read by any
     other E-Mail Program by connecting to POP3 server included in SafeMail.

        For example:
           On SafeMail menu\Tools\Set POP3 or Run POP3 Server.
           Copy messages to POP3MailBox or other folder preset in "Set POP3".
           Set Outlook Express:
               menu\Tools\Accounts\Mail\Properties\Servers:
                   Incoming mail(POP3): IP address or MachineName where SafeMail is running.
                   Account name:        safemail
           

What SafeMail does not:
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

     No mail parsing, no header parsing, no attachment parsing,
     no quoted-printable, no other unencodings ... 

     Cannot view mail files with big attachments, 
     mail file should be opened independently from SafeMail.

Advice:
mmmmmmm

To cancel during mail retrieving, exit the program.
Currently receiving message will be left on a server.
"Esc" keys are useful.
Shift+Space is useful to check mail.
Ctrl+Space  is useful to send mail.


Console window legend:
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 > - sent from SafeMail
 < - recived from outside
 : - local event




SafeMail does not implement any unspecified background activity,
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
no backdoors, no parasitic, no addware activity.

Some ideas (but not source code itself) where taken from
the free package "EZMailer" originated from: 
Kamilche (http://www.kamilche.com/)
and published on 
http://www.planet-source-code.com/xq/ASP/txtCodeId.10505/lngWId.1/qx/vb/scripts/ShowCode.htm
EZMailer looks like very good program 
and more sofisticated than SafeMail, with more features, but
it 
   1. requires to own Apex Software's TrueDBGrid Pro, www.apexsc.com; 
      and Funduc's Encode/Decode DLL, www.funduc.com
   2. database based which may increase risk of data corruption.
