Making an email program

I have made an outgoing e-mail program (SMTP) with good help from different
examples in VS 2005 VB.
I wonder if it is possible to receive email as well. The customer wants only
to use certain email (intranet users)receipients, to avoid spam and other
malicious stuff.

Definitely possible. But you need to determine what protocol is involved (POP3,
IMAP, other?)

Reidar,

This seems to be the starting point for this.

I hope this helps,
