I am looking into an application that needs to check that emails are being sent and received. Using asp.net to send emails is easy and not a problem, but putting in the processes to enable code to wait for and verify incoming emails is not supported.

So the best solution we have come up with is to use a COM connection to a Lotus mail client ( which is what the client use ) and process it in that way. But it struck me that this is a bit of a hack together.

So is there a way of using an SMTP server and asp.net code to look at emails and verify them coming into a specific email address?

    SMTP is used for sending e-mail.

    You need to hook into a POP3, IMAP or Exchange server to monitor for received messages.

    Can you explain some more about the process that you’re trying to automate? Are you trying to detect invalid e-mail addresses? If so, you can monitor a mailbox associated with the sending user for ‘bounce’ messages.
