dotnet framework : .NET C++ SMTP question

I have been asked to do the following:

Create an application that will take an e-mail address entered by the
user into a field and, once a button is clicked, will take that e-mail
address and check it against the mail server for that address using
SMTP to determine if it's a valid or invalid mailbox.

Can anyone suggest a resource for doing the SMTP checking?

If I remember correctly, the following article on CodeProject.com covers this
exact thing:

Yes it does, Peter. Now to figure out how to convert that C# to C++ :(

Thank you very much for the response though!

You could simply load the compiled application into Reflector and disassemble
it into C++. http://www.aisto.com/roeder/dotnet/ If you're looking for
C++/CLI there's an add-in for Reflector for that.

There's also a tool that will convert C# code to C++ and vice versa (or VB).
