C# IMAP SMTP mail client for Windows Phone 8

I need a mail client library (IMAP and SMTP) for Windows Phone 8 or another alternative (like TcpClient, SslClient in Windows 8, but I don't get in Windows Phone 8). I google a lot. Please let me know any library or Article/Tutorial to implement IMAP and SMTP mail client on Windows Phone 8.

Thanks in Advance.

I found this link very useful for Windows phone 8.1

Make a class like MailManager in data model folder and add this line of code at the top of your class using Limilabs.Mail; also add this Mail.dll library to your project. Read more

StorageFile imageFile = ...;
StorageFile attachmentFile = ...;

MailBuilder builder = new MailBuilder();
builder.Html = @"Html with an image: <img src="" cid:lena@@example.com""="">";
MimeData image = await builder.AddVisual(imageFile);
image.ContentId = "[email protected]";
await builder.AddAttachment(attachmentFile);
builder.To.Add(new MailBox("[email protected]"));
builder.From.Add(new MailBox("[email protected]"));
builder.Subject = "Subject";

IMail email = builder.Create();

using(Smtp smtp = new Smtp())
{
    await smtp.Connect("smtp.server.com");  // or ConnectSSL for SSL
    await smtp.UseBestLoginAsync("user", "password");

    await smtp.SendMessageAsync(email);                     

    await smtp.CloseAsync();   
}

You can work with sockets in Windows Phone 8. Apparently there is a new Windows.Networking.Sockets API you can try using, but the classic one based on System.Net.Sockets should still work - here's an example.

You'd still have to implement IMAP and SMTP yourself though, unless some functionality already exists that we haven't spotted yet.
