The pop3_command function sends a command to the POP3 server. The server returns the result of the command. For example, if you send the command "UIDL 1", the server returns the unique ID of the first message.

The pop3_command function cannot handle multi-line server responses. For example, it cannot handle the responses to UIDL, RETR, or LIST commands.

This function is for use with global sessions. For multiple sessions, use the pop3_command_ex function, which allows you to specify a session identifier.
