任何第三方.net SDK均可针对任何邮件服务器进行编程

Question

I want ac# windows service that will fetch all incoming emails (and their attachments), and I can do whatever I want with the emails, eg. I can store them in a folder on my desktop etc.

I believe what I need is a sdk which I will reference in my .net application. Provide all the connection strings within the objects of the sdk and any other necessary info to connect to the ANY mail server. Then I can fetch the incoming emails and manipulate them to my requirements.

The thing that is important for me is that; the window service should be completely independent of the location of the mail server. It should be independant of any type of mail server; ie: the mail server could be exhange or any thing else.

Can any one tell me please, what third party sdks are available to perform this functionality.

And is there any thing else that is needed to perform the above task.

Thank you and much obliged.

MailSystem.NET (more complete) and AENetMail (only IMAP but good implementation) look like libraries you can use. I don't know if the level of abstraction of these libraries is quite what you need - but then again, these are open-source so you can probably contribute any enhancements you make.
