I am retreiving all the messages and by using a for loop i am cycling through all the emails. I am trying to have it delete a message when the subject line contains certain text. So in ASP i wrote this
Set objMsg = objPOP3.RetrieveMessages
For Each Msg In objMsg
if instr(Msg.Subject,"delete me")>0 then Msg.DeleteMessage
Next
but i get an error that the object doesnt support this.
What am i doing wrong?

DeleteMessage is a method of POP3 object. The code should be as follows:
Set objMsgs = objPOP3.RetrieveMessages
For I = 1 To objMsgs.Count
Set objMsg = objMsgs(I)
If InStr(objMsg.Subject, "delete me") > 0 Then
objPOP3.DeleteMessage I
End If
Next
BTW, if you do not need message body (i.e. if all procesing is about analyzing headers such as Subject), you may use RetrieveHeaders instead. This will work much faster.
Also, it's recommended to check objMsgs for Nothing before use. POP3 object returns Nothing if connection is lost during messages download.
Set objMsgs = objPOP3.RetrieveMessages
If objMsgs Is Nothing Then
' Error!
Else
' All's fine
End If
