Reading email with asp net

  1. Hi,

    Now that the option to forward your email to an AOL address is gone, I will need to read my email within our vb application. We currently can write email programmatically but now need to read it. Does anyone have a good example of reading email with vb? or a good place to go and find it. This will be very simple email sent to out "Webmaster" that already has a discountasp mail ID. Thanks, Jim
     
  2. Not sure ,where exactly are you planning to read the mail from?

  3. Hi,

    I thought I would be able to read the email from the POP3 address for our web site? Am I way off base? I thought it would be something like, select the POP3 server, open a link to the mail for the user, "Webmaster", and read the message. Sound plausible? Jim

    Yes. Try use one of the POP3 component installed on our servers.
