What standard means can be used to receive mail in C#?

Question

Email

Mail client based on MS Visual Studio NET C#

Answer 1

There is a System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient for sending emails, but there is no such one for receiving. Use OpenPop.NET .

var client = new POPClient();
client.Connect("pop.gmail.com", 995, true);
client.Authenticate("[email protected]com", "YourPasswordHere");
var count = client.GetMessageCount();
Message message = client.GetMessage(count);
Console.WriteLine(message.Headers.Subject);

Still it is possible to look at MailSystem.NET .
