Receive Email via SMTP
Hello All,
So i have an app that sends emails out perfectly. I now need to know if it is possible to receive emails via my smtp server?
I have searched around a bit and can't seem to find much.
Any help would be much appreciated...
Kind Regards and Many Thanks,
Daniel

Re: Receive Email via SMTP
No. If you want to receive emails yahoo is not a good choice, because it does not allow pop3/IMAP access unless you have a premium account. You could use Gmail, I think, but either way you need to use some 3rd party control for receiving emails, because there are no pop3/IMAP classes in the .net framework.

Re: Receive Email via SMTP
I pulled one off codeproject a while back that I used for a personal app. I don't remember the exact one, but there are a few on there that should work.

Re: Receive Email via SMTP
Hi, thank you all for your consideration and help. The only thing is i need it in VB.net code not C#. I have tried converting it but had nothing but errors. Basically the app just needs to be simple and clean, the emails read into a listbox of some sort and show up in a textbox or a web browser (for html requirments but this is not a requirement). Thank you...
