Hi,

you cannot do that through system.web, you need to use the ActiveX "Microsoft Collaborative Data Objects". Just add that reference to your project.

Are you meaning in an ASP.NET environment or Windows Forms? And when you say
receive, are you talking about writing your own mail client?

Shahid,
i want to Recieve email in Windows forms environment
Recieve from where? Do you want to create a Microsoft Exhange Server client,
a IBM Lotus Notes Client, a HTTP mail client, a POP3 client, an IMAP client,
or some other mail server. Or are you thinking a client that supports all
these formats?
and yes i want to create email client.

Do you want to implement the above protocols yourself, or are you looking
for a library?

Matthew MacDonald's book "Microsoft Visual Basic .NET Programmer's Cookbook"
from MS Press has sample SMTP & POP3 clients to get you started on sending &
receiving email. Note the SMTP samples uses the System.Web.Mail namespace
that is a wrapper around CDOSYS.

Hope this helps
Jay
