CDOSYS does not allow to read e-mail, only to send them.
While CDOSYS doesn't allow you to pull mail via POP3 or
IMAP4, it can load a raw MIME message as stream
for example from an .EML file saved to your hard disc.
This can get complicated really quickly . So it is possible
but I can think of better ways of spending the summer.

Or you could use a dotNet DLL to call POP3 via tcpconnection class
See 8.13
http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/sampchap/6436a.asp

Pop3 controls callable from Access; a lot out there generally work 
through sockets
