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 misunderstanding, 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:
