Receiving Email with Microsoft Azure

How can I receive Email with Microsoft Azure?

Yes, I know the instruction from Steve Marx:

EmailTheInternet.com: Sending and Receiving Email in Windows Azure

But it does not work, since he recommends two libraries, cses and SharpMimeTools. Both of these libraries use different versions of the library log4net, I can not refer both versions in my project, because of name clash, so in essence the proposed solution does not work.

If there is a trick to make it work - good. If there is a completely different solution, good as well.

You can also receive email in a similar way to sending email in that post without the need for the worker role. Sites like http://cloudmailin.com allow you to receive email directly as an http post and avoid any of the required setup or the need to have to run your own email server.

Although running you own server can have it's advantages it looks like in this case it maybe easier to rely on a third party in the same was as the sending does.
