using Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook; //you need to add the Microsoft Office 11.0 Object Library to use this. mine is version 11 you might have an older or later version.

Outlook.Application outlook = new Outlook.ApplicationClass();
Outlook.NameSpace ns = outlook.GetNamespace("Mapi");
object _missing = Type.Missing;
ns.Logon(_missing, _missing, false, true);

Outlook.MAPIFolder inbox = ns.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox);

int unread = inbox.UnReadItemCount;
foreach (Outlook.MailItem mail in inbox.Items)
{
string s = mail.Subject;
}
