Yes it is possible and over the past couple of days I have a couple of active threads running on this very subject.

There are a variety of ways to do it.

The best way for you will depend on your application.

If you have to get through lots of different firewalls then MAPI is the easiest way to go since a route through any potential firewall already exists.
It is not possible to delete the emails using this method however so it is messy for large numbers of transfers unless you get your client set up on a different email account.

If Firewalls are not a problem then you can consider.
FTP
SMPT

If all your clients have Outlook
Nigel Coates Outlook Control is favourite and you can delete the emails to avoid messing up clients email account.

If all your clients have Windows 2000

There is CDO! Collaboration Data Objects 1.21 or higher
