How to read email

[tshad]

I am trying to set up my system to read an for changes in another database.
When a change to a persons profile happens, an email can be sent. I want my
system to wait for the email, then go off and handle it.

How best would I handle this?

Thanks,

Tom

What u need is a component to read your inbox, so you can write one your
self or get one. There are many free components available so it's up to you.

But where would I get one?

I found the code I need in one of my books. I also tried to do it manually
using Telnet, and it will read a list of emails (I am using exchange), but
there doesn't seem to be a way to read the last email, just get a list of
emails and then read the one you want. If you don't delete the email it
will always show up.

I have to find a way to look at the most recent emails. I also need a way
to look at exchange and get the email exchange gets it (push from exchange).

Thanks,

Tom
