read gmail email

I just need to be able to get and read the text in my gmail inbox using c#. I've googled it but mostly all I found was how to send, which I already know how, email. I just want to connect to my own account. I don't need to get attachments or anything and I want to stick to the built in namespaces and everything. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the links, but I was hoping there was a different way than having to buy or download other classes for it to work.

thanks ddanbe, that looks like it should work. I get several errors when I try to run it though. I may try to look at the code or maybe try doing this in Java or a different language.
