Answer 1

Those events are sent to you via SendGrid's Event Webhook. To consume the webhook, you must set up a server that accepts POST requests, and processes the data in those POST requests.

This article explains webhooks and and goes on to discuss how to create REST Services in C#, which you'll need to consume the webhook.

Edit: This Github Project acts as a great example of how to use SendGrid's Event Webhook with C#.
