You can do that using Redemption Import Feature.

var inbox = RDOSession.GetDefaultFolder(rdoDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox);
RDOMail mailitem = inbox.Items.Add();
mailitem.Import(@"e:\\test.eml", RedemptionSaveAsType.olRFC822);
mailitem.Save();

What this code does is gets the default Inbox folder and creates a empty email item. Then the import function retrieves the .eml file and parses into the email. we can save this to inbox then.

If we are using any Webservices then by fetching the .eml with HttpClient and then import and save it.
