    Receiving mail in code

    I apologize if someone has already answered this before, but I have what I think to be a simple question... Using a reference to Outlook, I can send email messages via code without actually opening an instance of Outlook. But my question is, how can I check to see if I have any new email with code, and grab the sender, subject, and body as strings? With or without Outlook, it doesn't matter........

    Thanks in advance.....

    Search Yahoo for JMail, its a great component, works like a charm. Free too!

    Correct me if I am wrong....but, MAPI too can be used in this scenario.

    The Jmail reference works great!! It's about as easy to use as a command button.... Thanks for the help.... I'll probably get into MAPI eventually, wouldn't mind learning it, but for now, for all I need this for, Jmail will work.... Thanks again....

    dyNamite: yes you can use MAPI but it will bring up the Outlook interface, big pain in the rear if you want to mail in the background.
