- Tue Aug 25, 2015 11:43 am #27014 Is there a sketch to receive email using the Arduino environment on the ESP8266? I know that this is possible using NodeMCU but I'd like to use the Arduino environment.

- Tue Aug 25, 2015 1:22 pm #27025 By receive email ... do you mean an email client which connects to your remote POP3 or IMAP mail server and downloads an email (and so, what do you want done with it?) or do you mean (by receive mail) the ability to be an email server and receive email from remote email clients for storage and later retrieval?

Free ESP8266 book available for download here.

Looks like a lot of limitations.
