RE: [flexcoders] POP3 by Socket
Rogerio, The only way to access pop3.domain.com is to put a crossdomain.xml policy file on that server. The domain sandbox was tightened given a security hole in the Flash Player 7 generation. Admins will usually support adding crossdomain.xml policy files to servers for customers. Make sure the crossdomain.xml file is generic like so: Options: Get an admin to add the crossdomain.xml file to the pop3.domain.com server. Proxy the POP3 TCP Socket connection with a with a Socket server. Apollo will support direct TCP Socket connections to a domain.

Ted, that is a handy site. A suggestion: An issue that is not obvious to those who are not web/network administratiors is: “Where do I put the crossdomain.xml file”. While I bet this is discussed on more than one of the links you provide, consider a quick paragraph on the subject, for additional convenience. The usual response: “In the root of the web server” is not enough for non-experts.
