Pulling messages from GMail terribly slow about s22.imap HOT 6 CLOSED

huh that is weird. Your code is fine.

Try commenting out the OnNewMessage line, does that make any difference? I just ran a couple of tests on Gmail fetching some 50 mails without problems. What size are the attachments?

from s22.imap.

Hmm I will test again this evening..

It might be the case that I switched from AE.Net.Mail, and I received a System.Net.Sockets.SocketException in the method ReadToEnd, so I switched to your dll.

Could it be that there might be still some connections on GMail that might not have timed out yet?

Also, I see that I get the client instance in the event. Is it advisable to Dispose it where its created? or keep it in a local field?

Last question: how do I get the received date from an email? :)

Thanks for your help!! Much appreciated

Attachements are aprox 1 MB in size btw :)

OK, well I don't know about lingering connections, I don't think that should have anything to do with it...well unless there was still some instance actively downloading stuff in the background and hogging your internet connection.

You shouldn't dispose of the client instance in the event handler. Disposing will close the network stream and shutdown the tcp connection with the server.

As for the date, if the mail header contains a date, it should be in the Headers collection, i.e. myMail.Header["Date"]

It works like a charm now.. I think it was just a fluke at GMails side! :)
