cannot read message body of incoming email

I am trying to read the email message portion of emails that are incoming to an email account via Dynamics AX 2012. I have created a job below for testing. I usually get back what looks like garbage for the message body while reading the subject, etc. works fine. I have tried to read as HTML and as Plain text. I know the email is html but when I read as HTML I get a "" message returned. Thanks.

To do the decoding, you can use BinData class, or .NET Interop (System.Convert::FromBase64String()).
