Asyncronous operation

I've developed a ASP.NET website which is running on a Windows 2003 Server
with IIS6. I need to be able to run an asynchronous task that checks a POP3
mailbox, processes an email, writes data into the database and send SMTP
emails back out. All of this is implemented and working fine except the
asynchronous task bit.
In a traditional client/server environment we'd probably write a service to
carry out this operation. The same is perfectly feasible on the Windows 2003
server box but as IIS is running all the time, as it our website (if not
just waiting for an HTTP request) then I wondered if there was some
mechanism that can do what I need within ASP.NET itself or maybe a feature
of IIS 6.
Thanks, Rob.
