Hi all.

We already use the SMTP features in .NET for sending SMTP email, but how can
you receive SMTP email using the .NET framework. Basically we need to catch
email from a given address and then invoke our business processes. Any help
or a direction to the right article would be great. We need to work with the
SMTP service installed with IIS.

Thanks :-)
 
SMTP is for sending email and pop3 for receiving it. You could use a .net
pop3 component someone else has already written or write your own.
 
<script type ="text/javascript">
var win=null;

function NewWindow(mypage,myname,w,h,scroll,pos){

if(pos=="random"){LeftPosition=(screen.width)?Math.floor(Math.random()*(screen.width-w)):100;TopPosition=(screen.height)?Math.floor(Math.random()*((screen.height-h)-75)):100;}

if(pos=="center"){LeftPosition=(screen.width)?(screen.width-w)/2:100;TopPosition=(screen.height)?(screen.height-h)/2:100;}

else if((pos!="center" && pos!="random") ||
pos==null){LeftPosition=0;TopPosition=20}

settings='width='+w+',height='+h+',top='+TopPosition+',left='+LeftPosition+',scrollbars='+scroll+',location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,toolbar=no,resizable=no';
win=window.open(mypage,myname,settings);}
// Put this in your onclick event

function PopUpWnd()
{
var pg = document.getElementById("id")

NewWindow("CurrencyPage.aspx","abc", 350, 360, "No", "center")
}

</script>


You wire it something like this

<input id="btnChgCurrency" runat="server" type="button" value="Change
Currency" onclick="PopUpWnd()" name="btnChgCurrency" />
 
Thanks Aidy.

Thanks

You can read from a server using Pop3. Here is one example:

I am certain there are some pre-made, third party components, as well.
