The 'Deletemessage' method

Argument: Integer Scalar
Result: None

Valid for: GetMail

This method can be called to mark a message on the POP3 server for deletion. It takes a single argument, which is the index of the message to be deleted, in the range 1 to N, where N is the number of messages on the server (as returned by the count property, or the number of rows in the messages property).

The server will not actually delete the message until the session is successfully completed and you call the Close method. If an error occurs, or if the connection is lost, the message will be left untouched.

See also the deleteonread property, which allows you to specify that messages should automatically be marked for deletion when they are downloaded.
