After trying open source libs like bouncyCastle, supersocket or webSocket4net I tested an evaluation of a commercial lib named ELDOS SecureBlackbox. This test was successfull. Here is a code snipped, that gets the X509Certificates with all details:

public void OpenSSL()
{
    var c = new TElSimpleSSLClient();
    c.OnCertificateValidate += new TSBCertificateValidateEvent(OnCertificateValidate);

    c.Address = "myhostname.com";
    c.Port = 443;
    c.Open();
    c.Close(false);
}

private void OnCertificateValidate(object sender, TElX509Certificate x509certificate, ref TSBBoolean validate)
{
    validate = true;
}

The validation is getting all certificates... if validate is set to true, the next certificate will be shown. That means the callback is called forreach certificate there.
