    My question is :

    Is there a .net class that implements a POP3 client?

    I already found other libraries but I was wandering if .net already had a class that does this. All I could find is for SMTP (System.Net.Mail)

    This is for an academic project, and my teacher is kinda saying that there should be such a class.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi,

    As far as I now, in .NET Framework there is no POP3 client implementation yet.
    I had one project last summer and we needed to implement it. We were able to implement it easily based on the examples that can be found for example in "C# Network Programmin, Richard Blum, Sybex 2003" book.

    I thought that the 3.5 Framework has a POP3 client, but I can't find it. Was I dreaming when I thought MS added it?

    No such class if you need more reliable POP3 library:
