Pop3 pop = new Pop3();
pop.Connect("mail.domain.com");
try
{
    // Send HELP command (it produces a single-line response).
    pop.ExecuteCustomCommand("HELP\r\n", false);
    Console.WriteLine(pop.GetServerResponse());
}
catch (MailBeePop3NegativeResponseException e)
{
    // The given POP3 server does not support HELP command.
    Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
    Console.WriteLine("Server response is: " + pop.GetServerResponse());
