Note however that we're dealing with officially undocumented APIs here.
Apple's stance on that issue is somewhat ambivalent - on the one hand some
of these APIs (including Message.framework) are advertised to developers
("includes APIS for sendig and receiving e-mail"), on the other hand
developers are strongly discouraged from using anything that's not
documented. In any case: If it's not official, it might break any time.

(Memorable quote from an Apple employee during WWDC: "No, you really
shouldn't use that private method, since we could change it any time. In
fact, I think I'm going to rename it just to annoy you." :) )

As for socket access, Steven Frank is working on SmallSockets, a lightweight
Cocoa wrapper for BSD sockets:
