receive email in VB.net

Hi,

I use MailMessage to send emails and it works fine. But I don't know what
object I can use to receive emails. Could you help me with this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Li,

First of all, I would like to confirm my understanding of your issue. From
your description, I understand that you need to know how to receive emails
using .net. If there is any misunderstandin g, please feel free to let me
know.

As far as I know, System.Web.Mail namespace only provides us with classes
that use SMTP to send mail messages. However, how to receive the mail
messages depends on the mail server you're using. If you're working on an
Exchange Server, please try CDO.

For more information, please check the following link:

I have a Windows Service application that acts as if it's an SMTP server. Outlook connects to this service, which is always running on the localhost. This works fine most of the time.

Outlook sends it, because when I'm stepping through the code with the debugger,...

I wanted to ask for standard ways to receive data from a socket stream (with socket.socket.recv()). It's simple when you know the amount of data that you're going to receive, or when you'll receive data until the remote peer closes the connection. But I'm not sure which is the best way to receive a message with undetermined length from a stream in a connection that you expect to remain open. Until now, I've been doing this little trick: ...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
