{
  HeadersFromAndSubject("[email protected]",995,true, textbox_email_retriever.Text, 
    passwordBox_Receiver.SecurePassword.ToString(), 10);
}

public static void HeadersFromAndSubject(string hostname, int port, bool useSsl, 
  string username, string password, int messageNumber)
{
  using (Pop3Client client = new Pop3Client())
  {
    client.Connect(hostname, port, useSsl); //error in this line
    client.Authenticate(username, password);
  }

Should use the server name as below , I dont think it not an gmail account to have it as mail id format , only for authentication we are suppposed to use the mail id , try with this 

 pop.gmail.com"

Instead of this

 [email protected]

Correct me if 'm wrong
