"""A POP3 client class.

Based on the J. Myers POP3 draft, Jan. 96

Author: David Ascher <david_ascher@brown.edu>
        [heavily stealing from nntplib.py]

"""

# Example (see the test function at the end of this file)

TESTSERVER = "localhost"
TESTACCOUNT = "test"
TESTPASSWORD = "_passwd_"

# Imports

import regex, socket, string

# Exception raised when an error or invalid response is received:

class error_proto(Exception): pass

# Standard Port
POP3_PORT = 110

# Line terminators (we always output CRLF, but accept any of CRLF, LFCR, LF)
CR = '\r'
LF = '\n'
CRLF = CR+LF


class POP3:

	"""This class supports both the minimal and optional command sets.
	Arguments can be strings or integers (where appropriate)
	(e.g.: retr(1) and retr('1') both work equally well.

	Minimal Command Set:
		USER name		user(name)
		PASS string		pass_(string)
		STAT			stat()
		LIST [msg]		list(msg = None)
		RETR msg		retr(msg)
		DELE msg		dele(msg)
		NOOP			noop()
		RSET			rset()
		QUIT			quit()

	Optional Commands (some servers support these):
		RPOP name		rpop(name)
		APOP name digest	apop(name, digest)
		TOP msg n		top(msg, n)
		UIDL [msg]		uidl(msg = None)

	Raises one exception: 'error_proto'.

	Instantiate with:
		POP3(hostname, port=110)

	NB:	the POP protocol locks the mailbox from user
		authorisation until QUIT, so be sure to get in, suck
		the messages, and quit, each time you access the
		mailbox.

		POP is a line-based protocol, which means large mail
		messages consume lots of python cycles reading them
		line-by-line.

		If it's available on your mail server, use IMAP4
		instead, it doesn't suffer from the two problems
		above.
