Using BizTalk to Process Incoming Email
|

| Is there any way to use BizTalk to process incoming email? I see lots of info about sending out emails, but what about receiving emails?
Thanks!

| There may be many different options, but I have the following ideas:
1) Write or buy a custom adapter which polls specific mailbox for new
message.
2) Writer your own event sink in your Exchange server to pass inbound
emails to BizTalk server if you're using Exchange server.
3) If your mail server provides any way to save emails in the file system,
then you can create a FILE receive port which takes the email which is a
MIME message and process the MIME message using a pipeline with MIME
pipeline component in it. However it will not give you full flexibility to
get all information you need. For example, you may not be able to see what
was the From/To field of the email.
I personally prefer you create/buy an adapter for this.
For example, http://www.topxml.com is one of the company who provide an
adapter(not sure 100%) which has an ability to read emails from a POP3
account. I searched it from the Google.
Thanks,

| There are two ways:
1)Buy an adaptader(really dont know if work), or a pop3 client
component(easymail, chilkat) and write a windows service.
2)Write a mail reader that can interact with an outlook client using MAPI to
take the atach from a mail and put into the inbound folder (receive
function). And then add to scheduled task.
