I tried the POP3 Implementation code to retrieve e-mail from Gmail. I tried the code I got from a link which was suggested from another thread. I'm supposed to receive responses like +OK or -Err but the problem is this is there's this odd characters that shows up in my MsgBox.

I found these tutorials and codes regarding 'Retrieve E-Mail Through POP3' on an e-book entitled 'Microsoft Visual Basic .NET Programmer's Cookbook'. I understand what each functions/codes are but how do i design the GUI/interface to fit the codes?You want to retrieve messages from a POP3 mail server.Solution. Create a dedicated class that sends POP3 commands over a TCP connection.

POP3 is a common e-mail protocol used to download messages from a mail server. POP3, like many Internet protocols, defines a small set of commands that are sent as simple ASCII-encoded messages over a TCP connection (typically on port 110).Here's a listing of a typical POP3 dialogue, starting immediately after the client makes a TCP connection:
Server sends:+OK <22689.1039100760@mail.prosetech.com>
Client sends:USER <UserName>
Server sends:+OK[code]....
To add this functionality to your .NET applications, you can create a Pop3Client class that encapsulates all the logic for communicating with a POP3 server. Your application can then retrieve information about messages using the Pop3Client class. We'll explore this class piece by piece in this recipe. To see the complete code, download the recipes for this chapter in this book's sample files.
The first step is to define a basic skeleton for the Pop3Client class. It should store a TcpClient instance as a member variable, which will be used to send all network messages. You can also add generic Send and ReceiveResponse messages, which translate data from binary form into the ASCII encoding used for POP3 communication.
Public Class Pop3Client
Inherits System.ComponentModel.Component

View 3 Replieshow to download emails from a GMail account in a program I am creating for a clinic. I can send emails quite easily over SMTP, but can not find a way to recieve them (over POP3 or IMAP using SSL). I need to get the message body and the sender from each email in the inbox. It also needs to be native and can not use pay-for-use COM's and such. I am using Visual Basic Express 2010. Is there possibly a simple mail client program that is open source in VB.NET that I can tear apart?

I was recently working on a project that involving connection to a POP3 Server. I was using this piece of C# from CodeProject[URL] had complied it into a DLL and was using it in VB.NET.I'd connected to my Hotmail Account (not many mails) and it seems to work just fine. After that, I connected to my GMail account... I stared seeing errors!POP3 is meant to fetch emails only from the Inbox. Even when I made my own program to cross-check the problem, I saw that when I requested for the number of messages, the GMail POP3 Server returned a value which is about 5 times less than the actual inbox size.
255 Emails in my Inbox?? Online it shows me 2,414 emails in my Inbox.And secondly, my MAIN QUESTION is that how does one fetch the LATEST email from the POP3 Mailbox. What I've fetched here was an e-mail with ID 1! I want to fetch the top 20 emails (that were most recently delivered to the account)...Is there any work around for how to fetch the LATEST email from the POP3 Server rather than the oldest emails? I've also tried to connect to the Hotmail POP3 Mail Server. Again a "RETR 1" command fetches me the oldest email and not the latest one!
Is there any way I can make a vb.net application that will allow me to retrieve the gmail inbox into my Application? I can use gmail Smtp server to send the mails, the problem I am facing is that I cant receive the mails from gmail to my application?

View 1 RepliesI have a piece of code which sends email with an attachment from my application. The code uses MAPI to send the email. It opens up a new email message so the user can add to the email message, and then the user clicks send.The code works fine. However there is one small problem. The email that the code opens, is always in Microsoft Outlook. Sometimes the application's user has Outlook Express set up as the default client, but my application always opens the new email message in Microsoft Outlook. (Outlook 2003. In the one user's machine that has Outlook 2007, everything works fine and the email opens up in Outlook Express.)As I searched for a solution, I saw this problem posed many times in various places on the Internet, with no solution (or none that worked). I did try several suggestions which involved creating registry settings and registering some dlls.
