Question

How can I, using C#, Download an email attachment from my mail (for instance gmail)?

Answer 1

 //  Firstly you might want to use POP3Class which is mail support class.

     POP3Class Pop3= new POP3Class();
     pop3.DoConnect("your.mail.server",110,"username","password");
     pop3.GetStat();


  //  and then you can use the below code for storing an attachment.

     MailMessage mail = new MailMessage ();
     Mail.Load (args[0]);

     Console.WriteLine (
     "Message contains {0} attachments.", 
     mail.Attachments.Count
     );

    // If message has no attachments, just exit 
    if (mail.Attachments.Count == 0)
    return 0;

    foreach (Attachment attachment in mail.Attachments)
   {
   // Save the file 
   Console.WriteLine ("Saving '{0}' ({1}).", 
   attachment.FileName, attachment.MediaType);
   attachment.Save (attachment.FileName);
   }


// Hope that helps.
