Reading Mail from many different email platforms on c# windows forms application
I'm trying to read mail from different mail platforms on c#. Many people say:
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.NameSpace nameSpace =
application.GetNamespace("MAPI");
nameSpace.Logon("", "", Missing.Value, Missing.Value);
inboxFolder =
NameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlDefaultFo
lders.olFolderInbox);
Console.WriteLine("Folders: {0}", inboxFolder.Folders.Count);
Although this hasn't worked for me.
It tells me
Microsoft.Interop.Outlook
doesn't exist.
I want to find out how to do this
Thank you

It seems that you haven't added reference to Microsoft.Office.Interop namespace. You need to download Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll before accessing Outlook. Here is a sample code to access the inbox folder:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook;
public static class OutlookMailF
{
public static Outlook.ApplicationClass application = new Outlook.ApplicationClass();
static Outlook.NameSpace nameSpace = application.GetNamespace("MAPI");
static Outlook.MAPIFolder inbox = nameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox);
static Outlook.MAPIFolder sent = nameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderSentMail);
public static List<Outlook.MailItem> GetInbox()
{
List<Outlook.MailItem> allMails = new List<Outlook.MailItem>();
//inbox u tüm maillere ekle.
foreach (object item in inbox.Items)
{
if (item is Outlook.MailItem)
{
allMails.Add(item as Outlook.MailItem);
}
}
}
}
