    text
    copied!<p>Hy,</p> <p>I have an application that sends mails with Gmail SMTP server (smtp.gmail.com) using SSL.</p> <p>Now I want to read the emails from that account, does anyone have any idea how can I make this programatically in C# and ASP.NET?</p> <p>At this point I'm using this code:</p> <pre><code>TcpClient tcpClient = new TcpClient(); tcpClient.Connect("pop.gmail.com", 587); NetworkStream netStream = tcpClient.GetStream(); System.IO.StreamReader strReader = new System.IO.StreamReader(netStream); Label7.Text = strReader.ReadLine() + "&lt;br /&gt;"; //Label7.Text = "Server connected!"; byte[] WriteBuffer = new byte[1024]; ASCIIEncoding enc = new System.Text.ASCIIEncoding(); WriteBuffer = enc.GetBytes("USER " + TextBox4.Text + "\r\n"); netStream.Write(WriteBuffer, 0, WriteBuffer.Length); Label7.Text += strReader.ReadLine() + "&lt;br /&gt;"; WriteBuffer = enc.GetBytes("PASS " + TextBox5.Text + "\r\n"); netStream.Write(WriteBuffer, 0, WriteBuffer.Length); Label7.Text += strReader.ReadLine() + "&lt;br /&gt;"; WriteBuffer = enc.GetBytes("LIST\r\n"); netStream.Write(WriteBuffer, 0, WriteBuffer.Length); String ListMessage; while (true) { ListMessage = strReader.ReadLine(); if (ListMessage == ".") { break; } else { Label7.Text += ListMessage + "&lt;br /&gt;"; continue; } } WriteBuffer = enc.GetBytes("QUIT\r\n"); netStream.Write(WriteBuffer, 0, WriteBuffer.Length); Label7.Text += strReader.ReadLine() + "&lt;br /&gt;"; </code></pre> <p>And when I debug it it's shows that it's connected but no response in retrieving emails.</p>
