Send and receive emails under the command line

Today, I saw the introduction on the Internet and used the command line to send and receive emails.

Receive email:

1. Open the "run" dialog box in the "Start" menu and enter the Telnet command and the remote server port number, for example:
   Telnet to pop3.163.com 110The connection will be established with the POP3 server pop3.163.com of "Netease 163 free mail.
2. If the connection is successful, the POP3 server will respond to the following information (displayed on the terminal ):
   + OK Welcome to coremail mail POP3 server (163com [20050206])
3. User greenerycnIf the user name is successfully logged on, the POP3 server returns the following information:
   + OK core mail
4. Enter PasswordPass passwordIf successful, the following information is displayed:
   + OK 5 message (2267 octets)
   The number 5 indicates five emails, and 2267 indicates the total number of bytes (2267b) of the five emails ),

The Command Format and parameters are described as follows:
1. StatCommand Format: staTNo parameters required
2.ListCommand Format: list [N] parameter n (Optional). n is the mail number.
3.UIDL command format: UIDL [N] Same as above
4.RETRCommand Format: RETR n parameter n is not saving, n is the mail number
5.DeleCommand Format: Same as DELE n
6.TopCommand Format: Top n m parameter n, m is not saving, n is the mail number, M is the number of rows
7.NoopCommand Format: Noop requires no parameters
8.QuitCommand Format: Quit does not require parameters
For detailed functions of each command, see the following description:
1. The STAT command does not contain parameters. For this command, the POP3 server returns a correct response, which is a single-line message prompt starting with "+ OK, then there are two numbers, the first is the number of mails, and the second is the size of the mail, for example, + OK 4 1603
2. The LIST command is optional. this parameter is a number that indicates the number of the email in the mailbox. We can use the LIST Command without parameters to obtain the number of each email, in addition, each email occupies one row and is displayed. The preceding number indicates the number of the email, and the following number indicates the size of the email.
3. the UIDL Command is similar to the LIST Command, except that the UIDL command displays more detailed information about the email than the LIST command. The execution result is 4.
4. the RETR command is the most important command to receive emails. It is used to view the content of emails. It must contain parameters. After the command is executed, the server has a long response information, the information includes the sender's email address, sending time, And subject. The information is collectively referred to as the mail header. The information that follows the mail header is the mail body.

5. the DELE command is used to delete a specified email. (Note: the DELE n command only marks the deletion of the email. The mail will be deleted only after the quit command is executed ), the deleted response information is shown in section 6.
6. The top command has two parameters, for example, Top n m n is the mail number, and m is the number of lines to read the mail body. If M is 0, only the mail header is read.
7. Noop command. After this command is issued, the POP3 server returns only one correct response "+ OK" without doing anything"
8. Quit command. After the command is issued, telnet is disconnected from the POP3 server and the system enters the update status ..

However, Google emails are encoded in this way and cannot be viewed in Chinese.
