In the .net framework there is no pop3 mail library.
There is a good pop3 library from you can download from this link:
http://filebeam.com/f10f50075fc49ea6383cd6db411ea4d1
import this library by right clicking on the references folder in the project and clicking add reference, click on browse and selecting the downloaded dll.
Now when you have imported the library use the POP3 class:
DownloadMailTask.POP3Client.POPClient myPopClient = new DownloadMailTask.POP3Client.POPClient();
myPopClient.Connect(host,port);
myPopClient.Authenticate(username, password);
//in myPopClient u can get many things like attachements or the mail itself or the number of mails in your account
int MailMessageCount = 0;
MailMessageCount = myPopClient.GetMessageCount();
