Yes this can be done, depending on your level of experience. You need to look into the use of the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_Office_Protocol[^]. You may also like to search the CodeProject articles or Google for any samples or tutorials.

Thanks for help. One more thing, do you think this is a good example?

Quite possibly, judging by the comments and points awarded. But you will have to try it for yourself to see if it fits your requirements.
