Inbound email allows lists to receive email. This allows a SharePoint list to be configured with its own email address. Incoming emails usually create new list items with the details of the email and body of the email. In addition the original email and attachments can be attached to the list item.
This is a good replacement for public folders in ...

Incoming email enables you to send emails that end up in document libraries or other lists. Most of my customers are using this to archive/attach mails belonging to a project or make them searchable.
From the TechNet article that explains the planning steps:
"The incoming e-mail feature enables teams to store the e-mail that they send to other team members ...

It might be that you have a nullpointer exception.
I would try debugging the receiver, like this:
Deploy your solution.
Restart the SharePoint Timer Service (From services).
In VS click Tools -> Attach to Process.
Click Refresh
Find the one called OWSTIMER.EXE and attach to this.

This is not true, you can enable incoming emails on a custom list. Check this post out:
http://jasear.wordpress.com/2010/11/11/enable-incoming-emails-on-a-custom-sharepoint-list/
Your custom list basically needs to implement the EmailReceived event handler.

Yes you're correct. AD/Exchange isn't a requirement for SharePoint incoming email.
As long as you can get the email delivered to the SMTP service running on a SharePoint server.
The "only" advantage using AD/Exchange is the option automatic creation of the mailbox when a list is enabled for incomming emails.
You can just follow the Simple scdenarion of ...

Looking at the SharePoint help it seems like attachments is out of the box.
"If the Post list is configured to receive attachments, you can include an attachment to your blog post by attaching the file to your e-mail message."
However I'm not sure why there is no option for the attachements. Does anyone know what is missing.

This is probably a good place to start:

Once you can decode the image (look at the example return data here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4332400/python-parsing-emails-with-embedded-images) then it's a matter of simply adding the image as an ...

One approach I would like you to try,
Configure Incoming email settings on a SharePoint library. There are many articles in the web, like this which explains the same.
Once you start receiving emails directly to SharePoint library, you can use the SPEmailEventReceiver class which fires when an email is received in a list and then you can initiate a ...

Incoming email is only available in select lists and libraries.
Document, picture, or form library
Announcements list
Calendar list
Discussion board
Blog
Reference
So you'd need to use one of these lists or libraries as your base, remove the default content type and add your own.

On a multi-server farm, be sure the "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Incoming E-Mail" service is running on the same server you're using for the SMTP service, presumably one of your front end servers. Check this in Central Admin-System Settings-Manage Services on Server and cycle through your servers on the top-right. In my case the above mentioned service ...

The way I did exactly this a couple of years back was developing a SharePoint DelegateControl WebControl and staple it to the PlaceHolderAdditionalPageHead.
The WebControl would include code to check if the "/_layouts/EmailSettings.aspx" page is hit and if so check who is trying to reach this page (in my case checking web.config for a particular username).

There yre two ways for the solution
Update to the Latest CU or at least June CU 2012.
Go to Central Administration > Application Management > Configure quotas and locks > on the Site Quota Information section > set a limit (i.e: 5000 MB) on this setting: “Limit site storage to a maximum of:” > and then press “OK”.
After that it works for me.

AFAIK email enabled lists are not possible with O365.
There are 3rd party products available with that features, see http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/onlineservicessharepoint/thread/73673deb-04e8-4a27-a825-fe3b58683135/

You need to have SMTP server installed on the dev box so that it can receive email from the Lotus Notes box. Also, Lotus Notes box needs to know where to send the mail. So if you have developer@mydevbox.com as the recipient URL, that mydevbox.com needs to resolve to your dev box.
I haven't tried this myself, but you might be able to just use HOSTS file on ...

Salve! I wanted to set up email too, for my Sharepoint. In my configuration, I used hMailServer.
I realize you didn't mention hMailServer in your post, but I want to use it as an example because it represents a third-party mail server that is not Exchange, and has nothing (as you wished) to do with Active Directory.
I am going to assume you have followed ...

If you considering email for meeting, why not already use calendars in SharePoint that actually could receive events by email, and leave documents in libraries.
See here how to setup http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/view-and-update-a-sharepoint-calendar-HA010081987.aspx#BM6
