Ok, but this doesn't answer my question.

I need to have some docs on how to use kio, not just the API reference.

Just one simple example of how to fire off a kio job connecting to a pop3
server and how to talk to it would help.

Someone MUST be able to help me out here !


I _want_ to do something like this:

KIOJob j("pop");
j.setServer("localhost");
j.setPort("110");
connect(&j, SIGNAL(response(QString)), SLOT(s_response(QString)));
j.go();

s_response(QString)
{
  j.command("RETR 1");
}

... but I need to know EXACTLY how it is done, because the API docs DO NOT say.

At the moment it's like trying to learn to ride a bike using a book that only
tells you how big the bearings are and how deep the tread is.

Cheers,
Rik
