title: Processing incoming email
body: <p>How do I programmatically read an incoming email with .NET. I need a method to take the content of email message (in this case XML) on a POP server and read it into my application. </p>
  
  <p>Ideally this could be solved by:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>.NET code that I can run as a
  background task on my webserver to
  process the email.</li>
  <li>A service that can POST the contents
  of the email to my webserver.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Although I'm open to other options. </p>

    <p>Currently, we're looking at using the
    email accounts our hosting company
    provides.</p>
    
    <p>Our own mail server could potentially
    be an option, but its something the
    we'd need to contact the host about.</p>
