Hi all, Can anyone recommend software or even a .net library to develop software, that will check for bounced emails and the reason for the bounce? I get bounced emails into a pop3 account that I can read then... I need it to keep my user database clean from invalid email addresses and want to automate this (mark user as invalid email)...
I've been asked to write a Windows service in C# to periodically monitor an email inbox and insert the details of any messages received into a database table. My instinct is to do this via POP3 and sure enough, Googling for ".NET POP3 component" produces countless (ok, 146,000) results. Has anybody done anything similar before and can ...
Looking for a POP3 Client for .NET that basically just lets me log into a server and grab all the emails out, and maybe send some. I grabbed Indy.Sockets off of CodePlex and got it running but its throwing errors trying to decode the mail headers. Really anything is fine if it works. ...
For the past few weeks, I've been trying to learn about just how email works. I understand the process of a client receiving mail from a server using POP pretty well. I also understand how a client computer can use SMTP to ask an SMTP server to send a message. However, I'm still missing something... The way I understand it, outgoing ...
I am looking for a method of reading emails using Pop3 in C# 2.0. Currently, I am using code found in CodeProject. However, this solution is less than ideal. The biggest problem is that it doesn't support emails written in unicode. ...

I'm looking for ActiveX components that can easily: get and send emails via SMTP and POP3 strip out and save attachments. Convert RTF (Outlook emails) to HTML Sanitize HTML. What components would you recommend? What components do you use? ...
I have a web application that requires a server based component to periodically access POP3 email boxes and retrieve emails. The service then needs to process the emails which will involve: Validating the email against some business rules (does it contain a valid reference in the subject line, which user sent the mail, etc.) Analysing ...
I can't seem to retrieve the AlternateView from System.Net.Mail.AlternateView. I have an application that is pulling email via POP3. I understand how to create an alternate view for sending, but how does one select the alternate view when looking at the email.

Hi, Does .NET have a way to pull email from a POP3 server out of the box or you have to code/buy a 3rd party component? ...
Update: A 4.x.x vs a 5.x.x became the least of my worries when I discovered that not all mail servers return errors according to the "standard". I'm opting to handle all types of returned mail as failures now but I'm leaving this question here in case it gets an answer and helps someone else. I've been tasked with writing a program to r...
I use Thunderbird to receive email using POP3. I have Thurnderbird configured to leave email on the server. Lets say one day I uses POP3 to retreive (RETR) 10 email messages, then I logout for the night. Overnight 10 more messages are sent to my mailbox. When I fire up Thunderbird the next morning, the STAT command should show 20 mes...
Hi, I need to build a web based email client (asp.net) I'll be using a 3rd party library for pop3/smtp/mime/etc. What challenges do you guys think there will be during development?

I'd like to use a C# program to poll a gmail account and automatically download new messages. I know you can use gmail as an outbound SMTP server, but is there any way to access new messages sent to the account? EDIT: Thanks for the rapid feedback....so I have two options, POP or IMAP. Which one should I use? And why? EDIT #2: Looks ...
I am using an open source client to programmatically process incoming emails (on Windows 2003). The only way to prevent receiving previously read emails is to delete them from the server. This is less than ideal. As far as I know, there is no command in Pop3 to set emails as being read. So how do you go about this? ...
I am creating a web based email client in .NET using a 3rd party component. I just want to make sure I have the right idea: I will first pull the emails in using POP I will then parse each individual message that I got from POP using the MIME component right? My choices for 3rd party are: Nsoftware, Quiksoft or Dart. I am looking a...
How can I check if an e-mail has been read using POP3/SMTP? I am able to read e-mails, but I can not figure out if the e-mail has been read or not. Any suggestions are appreciated. ...
In the last half hour I've been successfully forwarding my mail from my free Yahoo account which does not have POP3 enabled to my GMail account, by using these two free utilities: ypops and getmail for hotmail.
