Rebex IMAP for .NET

What’s new in Rebex 2012 R3?

• Task Based Asynchronous Methods - New Task-based asynchronous methods added to .NET 4.0/4.5 components. This makes it possible to utilize new await keyword available in .NET 4.5 and Visual Studio 2012.
• Events now using SynchronizationContext - Previously, events raised by asynchronous methods were running in a background thread, making them hard to use in GUI applications. Now, events are raised using the SynchronizationContext captured when the method was started, which means events will run on an application's GUI thread, making it possible to update controls directly from event code.
• Simplified Connection Methods - The Connect method automatically chooses the port according to the communication protocol and the specified SSL mode.
• Custom Certificate Validation - New ValidatingCertificate event for FTP, IMAP, POP3 and SMTP components.
