# Reading Incoming Email Using .Net Technologies (Either VB.Net or C#)

Hi Everyone,\
I have created one light [weight](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12951/the-importance-of-breakfast-in-weight-reduction) [application](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12824/calculator-application-in-android) for [reading](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/126273/books-commonly-found-on-college-reading-lists) the incoming email to a specific [email address](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/33871/how-to-validate-email-address-in-javascript). There may be [multiple email](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/105236/how-to-manage-multiple-email-accounts-on-a-mobile-phone) addresses which we have to read using [single instance](https://www.mindstick.com/interview/34170/what-is-the-difference-between-percall-persession-and-single-instance-modes) of application. We tried using [outlook](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/135055/how-to-change-your-account-password-in-outlook-com-toll-free-number-1-844-832-5538) but it only reads email from one email address.\
Any help on above is really appreciated.

Hi Ankita,\
If you need basics of **POP3/SMTP** in .Net languages you could go to **www.pscode.com** or other source code webpage that gives you examples of how it is done.
