Hi,

I am looking for a way to connect to an POP3 server and retrieve attachments from the e-mails to a local folder. Is there a way to do this using vb/vb.net?

I have seen sample code which uses EasyMail to connect to the mail servers. I am looking a way to connect without using any components. If anyone have the answer... please let me know.

Thanks

agus,

The title of your post says "Read from SMTP Server" while the body references to POP3 Server.

But i guess you meant POP3 Server. You can check out my open source C# component at http://sourceforge.net/projects/hpop/. Try to download the first release (as it is simplest, current release is quite bloated). You can check the code and convert to VB.NET. I think it would be quite simple to do the conversion.

And do visit "http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1939.html" for a reference to POP3 protocol.

Thank you Hamid. I will try.
