Which control to use

I am making an email app and I would like to display the emails like hotmail
does. Which control would be more suitable datagrid, datalist or repeater?

The datagrid has the most built in functionality, so I'd go with that unless
it's too inflexible to support your requirements.

I hope this helps,

That really depends on exactly what functionality you need. Datagrid would
be fastest and easier to implement.
