Hey everyone!

My latest project requires both sending and receiving emails.

Now i know how to send emails using a gmail account, but what im having incredible difficulty with, is accepting emails. What i want, is to have a program that both has the ability to send emails, and capture emails being sent to the logged in user, and place them in an inbox list. I was wondering if anyone knew how to receive emails with a program, even temporarily, so that when an email is sent to the user, my program knows about it, and can take the body from the email, and place it in say a textbox.

My idea is simple. My end product will have the ability to receive emails, and i will search through them, and if the body of the email contains key words like, 'open internet' then, i will have my program start the default web browser.

My hope for this, is to be able to text my email these key words to remotely command my computer.

It may seem like a difficult task, but it would be very simple if i could just figure out how to catch incoming emails.
