C# Email Sending/Receiving--Help?!?
-
Hello, I'm trying to make a C# program that, in part, sends and receives emails. I'm using Gmail as the account, and can send emails from this program that would show as if I'd sent it from my Gmail account because it sends a command to Gmail containing my name and password, the email itself, who it goes to, etc. That's fine, but the other half of the transfer is what's got me stumped--how to get the emails off that same Gmail account and show them on the screen. Does anybody have any experience with this that can guide me in the right direction? Thanks for your time, Michael Fritzius

You need to use POP3 or IMAP protocols. Check out here[^] and here[^]. You will also need to enable POP3/IMAP access in your gmail account (through the gmail interface under settings).
