Reading email in C# .Net

[jive]

I'm using SmtpPop.dll to read emails the code:

POP3Client pop = new SmtPop.POP3Client();
pop.Open ("pop.gmail.com", 25, "myaccname", "mypass");
SmtPop.POPMessageId[] messages = pop.GetMailList(); //The code breaks here
 

and i get this exception:

Waiting +OK. Received :502 5.5.1 Unrecognized command. f31sm10153311fkf.15
 

pls help.
thx in advance.

Look into SmtPop.Net or this article

yes i read those and still cant figure it out
a code sample of connecting to the gmail server would really help

You can look here
There is a sample code there

// connect to pop server
    SmtPop.POP3Client pop = new SmtPop.POP3Client ();
      pop.Open ("localhost", "110", "mylogin", "mypasword");
 
    // get messages list from pop server
    SmtPop.POPMessageId[] messages = pop.GetMailList ();
 
    if (messages != null)
     {
          // Walk attachment list
          foreach (SmtPop.POPMessageId id in messages)
          {
              SmtPop.POPReader reader = pop.GetMailReader (id.Id);
              SmtPop.MimeMessage msg = new SmtPop.MimeMessage ();
 
              // read message
              msg.Read (reader);
              if (msg.Attachments != null)
              {
                  // do something with first attachment
                SmtPop.MimeAttachment attach = msg.Attachments[0];
                  if (attach.Filename == "data")
                  {
                      // read data from attachment
                      Byte[] b = Convert.FromBase64String (attach.Body);
 
                      System.IO.MemoryStream mem = new System.IO.MemoryStream (b, false);
                      BinaryFormatter f = new BinaryFormatter ();
                    DataClass data = (DataClass) f.Deserialize (mem); 
                    mem.Close();
                }                          
 
                //delete message
                pop.Dele (id.Id);
                  }
              }
          }
    }
 
    pop.Quit ();

Hi, thanks lot of for your code about read email from pop server.

Now, i have a problem. With your code was posted i can get all emails from server. With the first read, it is nothing. But when i read emails again, i must read all emails while most of emails i have readed before. How to only read emails unread status???

Thanks,
VyPhan
