Read Outlook messages in ASP.NET catches out of bounds error - asp.net

Question

I am trying to integrate MS outlook in asp.net. My code(below) catches out of bounds error. What am I doing wrong? am I not getting the inbox messages properly? Thanks in advance
EDIT: based on my debugging
inbox = name.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox)
Returns nothing. I am not sure why
Dim ol As Outlook.Application = New Outlook.Application
Dim name As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook._NameSpace
Dim inbox As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim item As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.PostItem
Dim subF As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.MAPIFolder
Try
name = ol.GetNamespace("MAPI")
name.Logon(Nothing, Nothing, False, False)
inbox = name.GetDefaultFolder(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox)
subF = inbox.Folders(0)
Dim ctr As Integer
For ctr = 0 To subF.Items.Count
item = subF.Items(ctr)
Label1.Text += "Subject: " + item.Subject + "<br/>"
Label1.Text += "Date: " + item.SentOn.ToLongDateString() + " " + item.SentOn.ToLongTimeString() + "<br/>"
Label1.Text += "Category: " + item.Categories + "<br/>"
Label1.Text += "Body: " + item.Body + "<br/>"
Label1.Text += "HtmlBody: " + item.HTMLBody + "<br/>"
Next
Catch ex As System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
End Try

Check your index base
Change
For ctr = 0 To subF.Items.Count
to
For ctr = 1 To subF.Items.Count
Or possibly to
For ctr = 0 To subF.Items.Count - 1
...if Microsoft finally got rid of the base-1-indexing scheme with the Outlook objects.
Make sure there's actually a folder!
Check to ensure that the inbox contains subfolders. If not, use the inbox itself.
inbox = name.GetDefaultFolder(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox)
If inbox.Folders.Count > 0 Then
subf = inbox.Folders(1)
Else
subf = inbox
End If
