ThreadTypes constants are used with Threads property, and define behavior of wodPop3Server when it comes to creating worker thread for each connected user. By default, no threads are created - all users work in same thread as wodPop3Server is. When you expect to receive many concurrent connections at once, you should try to use one of threading options instead.

When SafeThreads is selected, worker threads are created, but when it comes to firing events, main thread is notified about the event, and main thread fires the event. This is a requirement in some languages. For example, in Visual Basic it is a recommended option. Speed increase should occur with this setting, but still you should NOT put lengthy processing in events code, since all users must wait to fire events until your processing is completed.

Selecting FullThreads allows wodPop3Server to completely fire events from worker threads. While this may not be safe in some environments, it is suggested selection in NET environment, such as VB.NET and C# languages. You can put any lengthy processing inside events code, since you will block only one thread - while other users are allowed to continue posting their messages interrupted.
