Hi all,

I'm trying to write a service that will verify an email that the service itself has sent made it to one specific outside inbox.

The service will always send an email with the address abc@abc.com.
The service will also have full access to the outside inbox (smtp/pop3).

I'm trying to find a way that the service will either check the outside inbox & say "yes it was deliverd"

or have it actually download all or part of the email back to the server the service is running on.

So basically, I think my question should be:
How do I retrieve or verify an email was delivered to an outside inbox that I have full access to?
I've seen e-mail retrieval "components" on the net but want something free & am not very interested in api's that people have coded that aren't in the .net package.

Thanks!
