ServerObjects.com has one for $49:
http://www.serverobjects.com/products.htm#aspsock
Catalyst has one for free:

I have not tested either of these, but I'm sure they're fine.
Good luck,
Chris

>A couple of quick ways to do this is to use the IMAP4 protocol and retrieve

>C: 100 LOGIN username password
>S: 100 OK LOGIN completed
>C: 200 STATUS inbox (RECENT MESSAGES)
>S: * STATUS inbox (RECENT 0 MESSAGES 46)
>C: 999 LOGOUT
>
>Or to provide a more detailed look at the current state of the mailbox, you
>can use the following:
>C: 100 LOGIN username password
>S: 100 OK LOGIN completed
>C: 200 examine inbox
>S: * FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft)
> * 46 EXISTS
> * 0 RECENT
> * OK [UNSEEN 11] 5 Messages unseen
> * OK [PERMANENTFLAGS ()]
> * OK [UIDVALIDITY 2340432167] UIDs valid
> 300 OK [READ-ONLY] EXAMINE completed
>C: 999 LOGOUT
>
>Either one will suit your needs and both are quite fast even on large
