I don't really know what gcc does in that case. But if it returns a pointer to
the structure, you have to use the READ instruction to read the structure
fields by using their memory address, or the StrPtr() function, as there is
no support for structures in Gambas yet.
DIM Result AS Pointer
Result = pop3.pop3GetEMail(...)
PRINT "To: "; StrPtr(Result)
PRINT "Cc: "; StrPtr(Result + 4)
PRINT "Bcc: "; StrPtr(Result + 8)
...
The weird thing is that you must write code that is 32 bits specific. I hope
this problem will be solved in Gambas 3.
