sending email into sql server 2008

What are some strategies for programatically setting up an email interface between a pop3 mailbox and an sql server database ?

I'd like to be able to setup an account, say "sqldb@mydomain.com", and any email sent to that email address I'd like to senders email address, the subject and the body of the message inserted into a table (for simplicity let say the table is called 'email' and has just those three columns).

What are some of the available options to accomplish this?

From stackoverflow

• You could use a .NET component like:

  Then have a scheduled task kick off a process that checks the inbox every X minutes, reads the new e-mails, then writes them to the DB.

• I recommend writing a windows service that polls an email box periodically. I found this example for reading POP3 email:
