I had the same problem and the gentleman from asp.net show me this link to go download openpop: http://hpop.sourceforge.net/

The link has a test project. But all I needed was:

        Pop3Client pop3Client = new Pop3Client();

        pop3Client.Connect("pop3.live.com", 995, true);
        pop3Client.Authenticate("user", "password");

        Message message = pop3Client.GetMessage(10);
        string messageText = message.ToMailMessage().Body;
